Shark Reef & Yolanda Reef

About this site

Rated as one of the top ten dives in the world, this dramatic drift dive features two reefs rising from abyssal depths connected by a saddle. Yolanda Reef holds the cargo remains of the sunken Yolanda vessel. Strong currents bring massive schools of pelagic fish. The vertical wall is breathtaking.
