About this dive site

This dive site is the house reef of the Robinson Club Soma Bay, offering an easily accessible and relaxed diving experience. Entry is directly from the beach, and after a short 180m walk, you'll find yourself in relatively shallow water, making it perfect for beginners and those looking to refresh their scuba skills. The underwater landscape is characterized by a fine, sandy bottom punctuated by individual coral blocks, creating a diverse and interesting environment.

The marine life here is abundant and varied. You can expect to see a multitude of colorful fish species, along with the possibility of encountering larger creatures such as eagle rays and turtles. The coral itself is a mixture of both hard and soft corals, providing a vibrant and healthy ecosystem.

The best time to visit Soma Bay for diving is during the warmer months, from April to October, when the water temperature is most pleasant and visibility is typically at its best. The calm waters and shallow depth make this site suitable for both scuba diving and freediving, though always check current conditions before entering the water. Remember to maintain a respectful distance from marine life and avoid touching or disturbing the coral.
