Dego Dego: cliff-side reef with restored coral
Dego Dego: cliff-side reef with restored coral
Dego Dego is a cliff-side reef on Bira's east coast, north of the harbour, where coral restoration has helped turn a damaged patch reef back into a lively stop. Expect hard and soft coral patches, reef-fish action on the wall, and the chance of occasional pelagics. It suits calm-water reef days more than technical diving, with a shallow top side that also works well for relaxed snorkel plans.
