About Salon
Salon is a compact Tofo reef dive that gives you a shallow top, a tidy base, and plenty of room to slow down and work the whole reef. The site is short enough to feel efficient but varied enough to keep macro hunters and fish watchers busy as they move around the coral and rock. Plan for a quick boat run and ordinary reef timing, because the site is better as a relaxed reef circuit than as a long-current run.
