    StandoutRich in charismatic marine life

    Sataya North, often called Dolphin House, is a horseshoe-shaped reef. Here, you'll often find pods of spinner dolphins resting in the calm, shallow waters. We usually approach carefully, observing them from the surface, though sometimes they'll pass by divers on the reef edge. Depths here stay around 20m, making it a relaxed dive, good for intermediate divers comfortable with boat entries.
