Finger Coral Plantation
Home to our coral nursery, where young fragments grow before being transplanted onto the reef. Shallow and easy, with yellowtail snappers everywhere — reef conservation up close.
This site is both beautiful and fascinating, with a depth of just 6 meters (20 feet). The sandy bottom is dotted with large rocks where vibrant coral formations are growing. One of the most unique features here is the coral nursery we've established to help restore and spread coral across our other dive sites — divers get to see reef conservation happening up close, with young coral fragments growing on their frames before being transplanted onto the reef. You'll also find plenty of marine life, including numerous yellowtail snappers and other tropical species. The shallow depth makes Finger Coral Plantation ideal for beginners, Discover Scuba participants, and anyone who wants a long, easy dive with real meaning behind it. Ask our team about the restoration project during your surface interval — it's a story we love to tell.
