Pallas
Boat-access south-side reef with finger corals and swim-throughs.
Plan for a moored boat dive over coral fingers, sand patches, and a shallow top reef; the swim-throughs and overhangs reward tidy buoyancy.
About Pallas
Pallas is a boat-access south-side reef with broad finger corals that slope into sand patches, plus swim-throughs, small archways, and overhangs. The shallow top reef is a highlight, with soft corals and juvenile reef fish, so it works as a scenic coral dive with enough structure to stay interesting on a repeat visit. It is a good fit for teams that want a controlled boat profile, careful buoyancy practice, and a site that rewards an unhurried look across the top reef and the sandy fingers below.
