This dive site, Raja Ampat Biodiversity Resort’s house reef, offers an accessible and vibrant underwater experience right off the shore. Divers can explore both the shallow reef flat, starting at just 2 meters, and a dramatic reef wall dropping to 10 meters. Navigation is straightforward, following the reef's natural contours, making it ideal for relaxed exploration without a complex history or story beyond its rich natural beauty.
The site boasts extraordinary biodiversity, home to hundreds of bright-colored fish that swarm above the healthy corals. Lucky encounters might include majestic sea turtles, graceful manta rays, and intriguing crocodile fish, adding to the rich tapestry of marine life visible even in its shallow depths.
While Raja Ampat generally offers excellent diving year-round, the prime season for encountering larger pelagic species like manta rays typically runs from October to April. This house reef is exceptionally well-suited for both snorkelers and freedivers due to its shallow depths and abundant marine life, while divers will appreciate the easy access and vibrant ecosystem.
