Merlin House Reef
★★★★☆
(190)
This reef is accessable directly from the beach in front of the Marriott Merlin Beach Resort & Spa Hotel.It's very important to check the tide tables prior to heading there, as the reef is only accessible during the high tide period with a recommended minimum water level of 1.5 meters.
From the beach you'll have a swim of about 100m across the tidal zone untill you reach the reef crest where the dive starts. The depth here is about 2+ meters.
