Soma (Gurua)

Soma (Gurua) is a coastal village in North Maluku, Indonesia, facing the Molukka Sea on the Indian Ocean side. The area offers access to nearby saltwater diving along coral habitats and local reefs, with a handful of dive centers and operators typically serving day trips from regional hubs. Given the modest number of nearby dive sites, the locale works as a gateway for divers exploring eastern Indonesia rather than a major mainstream dive destination. Conditions are tropical, with warm water year-round and visibility that varies by site; expect typical reef and pelagic encounters common to the Molukka Sea region. For detailed planning, check with local operators for current access, conditions, and site-specific notes.
