No Man’s Land is a site between two other dive sites, one of which is the Caves of Babylon. It has a variety of terrain including large gaps between coral stacks with small caverns and swim throughs, small flat sandy areas where you might find reef sharks cruising, and your typical coral reef heads.

There’s plenty to see and photograph at No Man’s Land, the knack sometimes is to pick a small area and examine every detail.

Even the stuff that doesn’t move looks attractive
