About Dixon's Pinnacles Dive Site
Dixon's Pinnacles is an offshore scuba diving site located northeast of Swaraj Dweep (Havelock Island) in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. It consists of two submerged pinnacles rising from the seabed, known for dense soft coral coverage and clear waters. The site is notable for schooling fish, barracudas, and diverse reef life. Accessible only by dive boat, it is regarded as an advanced dive site due to depth and occasional currents.
