The turtle shaped rock above water gives this site its name. Underwater it consists of huge boulder formations sourrounded by hard and soft coral. Most of the staghorn coral is at a depth of around 15-20 meters. The sandy bottom lies at about 25 meters.

Kuhl's Stingray are common on the sandy bottom as well as large numbers of Garden Eels. The crevices of the rocks are home to Sweetlips, Snappers, Angelfish and Moray Eels.
