Particulars
It will take you 10 to 15 minutes to reach the drop-off of Kleine Knip. On the way there is not much more to see than sand and a few large coral formations. The reef runs from the edge down very gradually. The coral density is limited to a depth of 10 meters to slowly increase.
Warnings
Kleine Knip is loved by locals and can therefore be very busy. Don't leave valuables in your car. Take as much as possible with you, including your diving equipment.
