I completely blew this dive my first time around. The good stuff is on the other side of the island. Check out this link:

From the beach you'll see two islands. All the good stuff is on the back-side of these islands:
North (right) island: A sloping rocky bottom, down to about 80'. Lots to see, including the odd seal. Best for beginners as the sloping bottom makes bouyancy control easier. In my opinion it is also the better dive, as more life was spooted here.
South (left) island: Vertical wall, in some points as deep as 130' (I've heard, I've only followed it down to ~100'). Not as much life as on the north island, but of more interest for those who like to go deep.
