And some of the dive sites the centre runs.
The waters in this region are known for encounters with larger pelagics, including the whale shark. These encounters depend on seasonal movements and local currents.
Beyond the larger species, the reefs support a diverse range of marine life. You will find a variety of reef fish and invertebrates inhabiting the structures throughout the archipelago.
Diving in this area typically involves currents that range from light to moderate. These conditions are generally manageable for most divers, but you should always check the local conditions before heading out.
Visibility in the area typically ranges from 5 to 30 metres, depending on the specific location and the current conditions at the time of your dive.
