Keepsake Roro is a reef dive with a sandy plateau, coral ridges, and a gradual drop-off into deeper water. The shallow section stays approachable for newer divers and snorkelers, while the outer slope adds sponge growth, mixed reef life, and more room for a slower, methodical route. Calm mornings are the easiest time to manage the entry and enjoy the site.

Scuba Diving
The shallow reef is friendly for newer divers, while the deeper slope rewards slower exploration and good buoyancy.
Freediving
The shallow plateau gives freedivers a readable profile and a conservative upper-reef option in calm water.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling works best on the shallow reef and first plateau, where coral and fish stay within easy view.
