About Pete’s West
Pete’s West is a boat dive at the western end of Facpi Point, where a sloping coral wall carries healthy coral growth and abundant reef fish. It is usually run as a morning drift that starts at Pete’s Reef before afternoon winds make the current less forgiving, and turtles are often seen in the area. The site is best planned as a guided boat dive with buoyancy control and a flexible entry point, because the reef edge can feel calm one hour and noticeably more exposed once the wind rises.
