The Rock in the area worked out to form a pretty good almost impermeable Bowl. If you watch theoretical progressions of continental drift over Millennia and keep your eye on this area you will notice it slowly drifting around in tropical and subtropical regions. This allowed a lot of algae to grow in the shallow Seas and the geography that most damn near a bowl keeps it collected in large pools making it more economically feasible to access
