Azul House Reef
★★★★☆
(2,706)
Azul House Reef is a beautiful dive full of fantastic biodiversity. What makes this site special, however, is the volcanic caves and rock formations. The bottom topography changes throughout the dive from sand and rocks to isolated blocks of coral and even caves. This is an exciting site for beginners and experienced divers alike, with a max depth of 18 meters.
Unique sightings include frogfish, huge round stingrays, sea horses, and the elusive monk seal. You will also see octopi, barracuda, groupers, garden eels, trumpetfish, cuttlefish, and morays.
