Pubudus Playground
West Bay's navigation-practice sand-patch dive.
Shore dive with a sand-patch start, canyon-like cuts, and a wall route that rewards careful route-finding.
About Pubudus Playground
Pubudus Playground is a West Bay navigation-practice dive with a sandy start, canyon-like cuts, and a wall framed by big sponge growth. It suits divers who want a clear route to read, but it also rewards a slower look at the sand patch before moving toward the wall. The site is less about pushing depth than about staying calm, reading the terrain, and choosing a clean line to the drop-off.
