Why dive here
With 313+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, giant moray eels, octopuses, sperm whales and whitetip reef sharks - Ant Atoll offers some of Pohnpei's richest reef diving.
Ant Atoll, just a short boat ride from Pohnpei, offers a collection of outer reef dives. We've found the coral here healthy, with some impressive hard coral formations on the outer slopes. Expect a good mix of pelagic fish, including grey reef sharks and schooling barracuda, drifting past the reef walls. It's a solid choice for divers looking for a straightforward drift dive with reliable big fish action.
