About Quirimbas Reef

A reef dive. It goes down to 30 m. You get in from a boat. It suits experienced divers only, as a dive guide states it. The coast faces E: swell from the E reaches it, and wind from the W blows out to sea. No dive centre within 50 km on the map: book a liveaboard or a boat from further off. The sea is about 26°C in July, its coldest month (3 mm wetsuit), and 30°C in March, its warmest (rash vest or 1 to 2 mm). No town nearby. No stay checked for this site yet: Ibo, 12 km away, is the nearest town we list. Nearest airport: POL (POL), 68 km.
