Bandos Rock
★★★★☆
(115)
Bandos Rock is located on the house reef of Bandos Island Resort. The top reef starts at 3 to 5 meters and drops (rather steeply) to a sandy bottom at 30+ meters. You will find several caves and interesting overhangs on the wall. Enjoy the large table corals, the pinnacle and a canyon.
Black and white tip reef sharks, tunas and sometimes even eagle rays. Inside the caves and overhangs you can find lobsters, cleaner shrimps, lionfish, and moray eels.
