Ritidian Point
Boat-dived north Guam reef with clear water, strong current, and big marine life
A north Guam sloping reef usually run as a boat drift, with very clear water, strong current, and a long profile that suits experienced divers seeking open-water scenery and bigger marine life.
About Ritidian Point
Ritidian Point is a boat-dived sloping reef on Guam's far north coast, where clear water, open-ocean exposure, and a long reef profile make the day feel more like a drift than a simple reef hop. The site is known for big marine life, hard corals, and sea whips that attract barracuda, sharks, rays, turtles, and other pelagic visitors. It is the kind of dive that rewards relaxed planning and current comfort more than a quick in-and-out approach.
