Calm resort house reef on Scuba Republic's jetty
Calm resort house reef on Scuba Republic's jetty
Use the Scuba Republic basecamp and dive team for jetty access and site orientation.
Scuba Republic House Reef is a calm resort house reef on a jetty in Raja Ampat, with a fringing coral slope, plenty of macro life, and easy access straight from the resort. It works well for relaxed scuba, snorkeling, and night dives, but it still rewards careful looking along the coral fringe and the sandy patches beside the reef. Plan it as an easy, low-stress dive rather than a current-heavy crossing.
