Why dive here
Regona is a wreck dive where divers can encounter dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales, ocean sunfish (mola mola) and orcas. Water ranges 22-28°C, warmest August, September, October.
Regona often brings a decent drift dive experience. We’ve seen good-sized schools of barracuda here, sometimes big enough to make you pause. The reef structure itself isn’t spectacular, more a rocky slope, but it’s the pelagics that tend to make this site. Best suited for divers comfortable with current looking for bigger fish encounters.
