North Maluku reef with a gentle slope and lively fish life.
North Maluku reef with a gentle slope and lively fish life.
Best run as a guided boat dive from a local resort dive base.
Mimmas Point is a classic North Maluku reef with coral blocks on a gently sloping sandy and rocky seabed. The dive feels relaxed and open rather than dramatic, with enough structure to stay interesting for newer divers while still giving experienced divers a pleasant reef tour. It is the kind of site where a steady pace, good buoyancy, and an eye for the reef line matter more than chasing depth. Expect a friendly boat dive that works well as an easy resort outing and still offers enough fish activity to keep the scene lively.
