Dive Spot Guide•
Rainbow Caves
Rainbow Caves is a fast drift through reef caves.
Rainbow Caves is a boat-only drift dive with strong current, reef caves, and overhangs; best for divers comfortable with moving water.
About Rainbow Caves
Rainbow Caves is a long drift through colorful reef terrain and cave openings, with the current often carrying divers quickly from one end to the other when conditions pick up. It suits guided boat diving and experienced current management, and the appeal is the mix of soft corals, schools of fish, and seasonal pelagic visitors rather than a slow sightseeing swim. Plan it as a flow-driven reef dive, not a relaxed shoreline outing.
