Kid Reef
★★★★☆
(25)
The left of Papatura shore, underneath the pontoon is little reef system, Kid Reef. Great for learning and assessing buoyancy before heading out to deeper dives. Max depth at Kid reef is 16 meters. This site experiences bi-directional currents influenced by tidal movements.
Lots of nudibranch can be found on the rocky reef as well as corals that look like marshmallows. Stingrays can be seen in the sandy bottom areas.
