Agusta Reef is a shallow current-facing reef in Raja Ampat, in the Agusta Island area. It is known for being shallow but demanding, with a reef hook often recommended and strong flow that concentrates fish on the reef edge. It is an expert dive rather than a deep one, and the best rewards come when the current is running cleanly.
