Antons

★★★★☆ (1,368)

Antons is one of the best dives in Sodwana. Anton’s Reef is so-named after one of the first dive operators in Sodwana Bay (1980’s) – Anton Buchel. On this reef you will find various gullies, a long swim-through, and boulders surrounded by sand patches. Numerous varieties of coral such as fleshy soft coral, table, and spiral coral, as well as colourful sponges cover the area. This dive site is only accessible via boat with an average depth of 12m and a maximum depth of 16m.

Plenty of reef fish, like titan triggerfish, are found on Anton’s Reef with cleaning stations in the caves and under the overhangs. Various rays and eels are also found regularly.
