Other details = Beautiful dive. The 'Big Wall' is actually the island on Little Munsom itself. The dive is usually done as a drift dive in which the divers circumnavigate the island. The east side of the island has a fantastic wall, covered from top to bottom with soft corals. Buoyancy control is important as the bottom drops away to more then 40m on the east side of the island.

Other details = VERY nice site. The reef is located about 20-30m north of the northeast side of Seopsom Island (an islet just off of Seogwipo). The reef can be reached by diving from the shore of Seopsom, but boat diving is much more ideal. The reef runs east-west and has a valley down the middle. The reef protects you somewhat from the strong currents that can run in the area, so it is a nice comfortable dive.
