Monkey Beach

Depth: 5-24m
Beginner-Intermediate
Coral Slope
45min Dive

About This Dive Site

Monkey Beach features a coral slope down to 20m which makes this an easy dive, except when currents are running – you can pick up quite a lot of speed here. If you drop in the middle of the bay, you will most likely encounter a wreck at 18m, tilted to the side.

The site is home to various marine life including:

  • Black Frogfish
  • Shy Jawfish
  • Mantis Shrimp
  • Small Reef Fish
  • Crinoids
  • Nudibranchs

Many Frogfish, especially the black variety, have made this area their home. Look around in the sand and you'll find lots of small holes, most of them inhabited by the shy Jawfish.

See anything green running swiftly over the sand from one coral to the next? It's probably a Mantis Shrimp, they are very common here. The site also features plenty of small reef fish, Crinoids and Nudibranchs.

Currents Note: Be aware that this site can experience strong currents at times. When currents are running, even beginners can pick up considerable speed, making this an exciting drift dive for the properly prepared diver.
