Dive Spot Guide•
Moya Reef
Boat dive on a shark-rich reef wall with swim-throughs.
A short-boat reef dive with swim-throughs, small caves, bright turquoise water, and frequent reef-shark sightings.
About Moya Reef
Moya Reef is a short boat ride from the resort base and reads as a reef-wall dive built around swim-throughs and small caves rather than a straight wall descent. The reef is described as shark-rich, with colorful coral over a sandy bottom that brightens the water. Plan a slow circuit, keep an eye on the overhead sections, and treat the site as a controlled boat dive rather than a drift or shore entry.
