Runway
★★★★★
(21)
Runway gets its name from the parallel seaplane runway. This easy and beautiful dive follows a coral-covered slope, starting at just 2m and descending to approximately 20m. The reef is full of marine life and offers plenty to explore.
The sandy bottom is just as rewarding, with stingrays, guitar rays and eagle rays often spotted in the blue. Keep an eye out for lobsters, hawksbill turtles and seasonal manta rays.
