Dive-site story
Located off the southwestern coast of Xiaoliuqiu, this dive site sits adjacent to rugged limestone cliffs and extensive coral reef structures. Divers traverse coral spurs, sandy channels, and gently sloping reef terraces that give way to deeper waters. Green sea turtles frequently feed across the hard coral gardens or rest in alcoves along the reef slope.
Frequent encounters with resident green sea turtles grazing on algae across the reef
Dynamic underwater topography featuring coral ridges, limestone crevices, and sandy alleys
Vibrant hard coral cover populated by reef fish and macro invertebrates
