Algae Patch 1
★★★★☆
(66)
Algae Patch is a “muck“ dive site used by many liveaboards to/from Raja Ampat / Sorong. It’s in a channel, so you’ll need to watch the tide charts to avoid strong currents. Lots of sandy areas with coral blocks and teeming macro life.
Nudys, Rhinopias, Scropion Leaffishes, Mimik-Octopus and Wonderpus have been seen here on regular base
