About Nurek Point
Nurek Point is a Buka Buka Island reef dive that starts on a gentle slope and drops into a deeper coral wall and slope system. Finger, Acropora, and cabbage corals give the site its shape, while blacktip reef sharks, turtles, and occasional rays make it feel bigger than the small-life count alone suggests. It suits divers who want clear water, classic reef topography, and resort-based logistics on a remote but manageable island base.

Local Intel For Nurek Point
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Starts with a gradual slope down to a reef, with depths around 18–30 m.
Freediving
Best for experienced freedivers on calm days; the reef slope is better as a controlled drop than a casual surface snorkel.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is limited to the shallows, so scuba gets much more out of the site than a casual surface swim.
