Thomas Reef

Dive Site Overview

about Thomas Reef dive site

This is the smallest reef in the Straits, but also one of the most popular. The dive is governed by the weather conditions as the western side is often impossible to pick divers up from.

The dive is done as a drift dive with potentially strong currents on the southern and northern ends of the reef. The ends are vertical walls with a large plateau at about 25m on the south eastern side.

This plateau often has sleeping sharks on the sand patches and the coral has a fence of Gorgonian fans at the end.

After the Gorgonian fans the reef returns to a wall before coming to the corner of the reef, watch the currents. If conditions allow it is possible to go round to the other side of the reef, which is a wall disappearing into the deep.
