1st Open Water Training Dive on the House Reef

--------------------------------

The house reef is located on the west side of the Island. The diving school is located near the house reef and an extended jetty will lead directly to the entrance.

The reef is gently sloping downwards to a sandy bottom at a depth of 18 meters, which makes it easy for beginners to make their first open water dives and divers conducting their check dive.

The reef is covered with sponges, lush brown soft corals and coral blocks with small reef fishes.

Snappers, emperors, small groupers and jack fish cruise the reef while the painted spiny lobsters peek curiously from their small hiding places. They rely mostly on the long antennae which are their main sensory organs when they explore the reef during the night time.

Glass fish and a variety of colorful reef fish enlighten the atmosphere during the dive.
