Pacug Reef
Calm coastal reef east of Fiesa
About Pacug Reef
Pacug Reef is a calm coastal reef continuation east of Fiesa, with sandy shallows, reef structure, and a route that works well when the sea is settled. The site feels like a relaxed shoreline reef rather than a deep expedition, so the main value is easy swimming, small features, and the mix of reef and sand. It is a good fit for beginner-friendly reef diving, with strong north winds being the main thing that can shut it down.
