Why dive here
With 369+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, bull sharks, humpback whales, seahorses and sea turtles - Paraiso offers some of Kerama Islands's richest diving. Water ranges 22-30°C, warmest July, August, September.
Paraiso, sitting just on the edge of the national park, can be a decent drift dive. We often find the currents here a bit stronger, which helps bring in some bigger schools. You’ll frequently see blue-striped snapper, amberjacks, and sometimes a swirling school of horse-eye jacks or barracuda. Keep an eye out for wahoo patrolling the blue. It’s a good spot for beginners who want a taste of a mild drift, and if you’re diving in winter, you might just hear the humpbacks singing.
