Suzie's Bommie
Outer-reef coral pinnacle with schooling fish and big-animal passes.
Local operator required
A local Port Moresby or Loloata boat operator is the normal way to line up the calm window and outer-reef approach.

The bommie tops out around 13 m and rises from surrounding sand around 30 m, so the range stays pinned to the pinnacle and its base.

Outer-reef pinnacle, clear water on calm days, and strong schooling life with larger animals possible when the current is right.

Safety Notes
Treat Suzie's Bommie as a condition-sensitive outer-reef dive: choose calm windows, keep buoyancy tight, and stay alert for current around the pinnacle.

Legal Notes
Follow local marine and resort rules, plus any day-of instructions tied to the outer barrier reef and boat operations.
Local Intel For Suzie's Bommie
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
This is a scuba-first pinnacle dive where the payoff comes from timing, buoyancy, and patience around the reef top.
Freediving
Not a freedive-first site; the depth and outer-reef profile make scuba the practical choice.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is not the main use case here because the main structure sits on a deeper outer-reef pinnacle.
