Agatti Island - Best Dive Sites

How We Picked

We chose sites that balance beauty, accessibility and safety across skill levels. Expect everything from calm coral gardens for first‑timers to dramatic outer walls for seasoned divers.

1) Turtle Point

Beginner‑friendly slopes at 8–14 m with resident green turtles, schooling sergeants and coral heads that create cozy fish alleys. Early mornings are magical here with buttery light and relaxed traffic.

2) The Wall

An exhilarating drop‑off where blue water meets the reef edge. Keep your eyes on the blue for trevallies, barracuda, and occasional reef sharks. Recommended for Advanced Open Water and above.

3) Coral Gardens

Vibrant bommies with soft corals and anemones. You'll meet clownfish, butterflyfish and the odd nudibranch if you slow down. Great for photographers and relaxed profiles.

4) Drift Alley

Gently moving current along the outer reef, with fusiliers and jacks flowing like silver rivers. We plan the direction based on tide, so your finning is minimal and the vibe is zen.

5) Eagle Ray Bend

A sweeping bend that often hosts cruising eagle rays. Maintain neutral buoyancy and a respectful distance to watch their graceful fly‑bys.

6) The Ledge

Step‑like terraces with sponges and sea fans, home to groupers and sweetlips. Mild to moderate currents; perfect for practicing multi‑level profiles.

7) Lagoon Gardens

Protected and shallow—ideal for courses and refreshers. Expect crystal‑clear snorkeling too when the afternoon sun paints the sand ripples.

Conditions & Seasons

Dive October–May for the best combo of visibility and calm. We brief currents, entries and emergency plans before every splash, and match sites to certifications so you dive within comfort and training.

What to Bring

Reef‑safe sunscreen, a snug mask if you have one, and a light suit or rash guard. Photographers—bring moisture munchers and backups for batteries and O‑rings.
