Dog Tooth Lair is named after the large schools of dog tooth tuna that can be seen at the drop off here. The drop off starts at about 40m and drops down into the 2000m deep abyss below. Above 40m is a sloping coral garden with ledges and overhangs.

All the usual reef fish such as snapper, wrasse, fusilier, parrotfish, surgeonfish and angelfish can be seen here. Other blue water species that can be seen at Dog Tooth Lair are barracuda and trevally. Hammerhead sharks cruise past this dive site in season. Even oceanic sunfish are occasionally spotted here. Look out for white tip reef sharks and sting rays while diving the reef ledge. Turtles feed on this reef as well.
