Vomo Dive Sites:
We have 5 dive sites around Vomo; all of them are 5 to 10 minutes by boat distance from our Activities Centre. These are considered shallow dives and the average depth for all of them ranges from 12 to 20 meters. These sites consist of many overhangs and galleys. Some of the marine life that can be spotted are small reef sharks, spotted eagle rays, napoleon wrasses or different types of reef fish such as groupers, snappers or anemone fishes, just to name a few. The coral life is quite healthy.
