Balay Reef
Description
Start at 20-25m, go up to 12 and end at 5m. Beautiful steep wall with coral gardens. Great spot for a night dive. In the south of this dive site is a marine sanctuary, where, at the time of printing, it is not allowed to dive.
Marine Life
Lots of small fish, and seahorse in the shallow. Big sea fans along the wall and mackerels, young Barracudas, and the Maori Wrasse. During the night dive for sure you will see some basketball stars.
Dive Direction
Start the dive with the wall on the right shoulder going north, or the left shoulder going south.
Remark
To all dive operators and boat captains, please do not drop anchor on this side of the island there are very nice hard corals in this area.
