About Kontiki Marina House Reef

Kontiki Marina House Reef is a shore-entry reef on Mactan with a shallow sandy start, scattered tropical corals, and an artificial reef that makes it a strong training and easy fun-dive site. It is known for resident turtles, sardines, and dense reef fish, while the deeper slope gives experienced divers room to extend the dive. Plan for the clearer dry-season window if you want the best visibility.
