Purple Reef

Purple Reef is a coastal reef dive site known for healthy coral cover and clear waters. Located near sheltered shores, it typically offers gentle to moderate currents and visibility that can exceed 20 meters on offshore days. Divers often explore a shallow to mid depth range with features like bommies, swim-throughs, and a mosaic of hard corals supporting a variety of reef fishes such as surgeonfish, snappers, parrotfish, and clownfish. Access is straightforward from nearby coastal towns, with easiest entry from a sandy beach or rocky shore and calm surface conditions most days. This site suits beginners to intermediate divers seeking a relaxed dive with manageable profiles and interesting macro and reef life.
