Papatura Pool
About Papatura Pool
Papatura Pool is a very protected shore dive over a large sandy flat in front of Papatura. The site is shallow at around 5–8 m and is commonly used as a pool-like training area for new divers. The bottom is mainly sand with seagrass, where turtles are sometimes seen feeding. Being next to a memorial coral garden, the area can also have plenty of fish life, and stingrays are often spotted resting on the sand.
