Paradise - Dominican Republic
★★★★☆
(228)
Paradies Reef is just that, an underwater paradise and a must-see dive off the coast of Punta Cana. The reef sits in 26 feet to 105 feet of water so there is something for every level of diver. A great night dive location as well to see the Dinoflagellates glow in the water at night.
Expect to see morays, nurse sharks, octopuses, eagle rays, stingrays, squids, and lots of different colorful fish amongst hard and soft coral species.
