Barren arch belies its name, which was intended to discourage divers. In fact it is a very rich area. The inner faces of the archway are thick with invertebrates. The bottom of the archway is of medium depth. It is a pleasant spot with clouds of demoiselles, pink and blue maomao and the occasional snapper passing through. Giant salp are seen here between november and february.
