Why dive here
With 236+ marine species recorded in the area - including blacktip reef sharks, manta rays, mobula rays (devil rays), pygmy seahorses and sea turtles - Andrea's Point offers some of Raja Ampat's richest reef diving. Water ranges 29-30°C, warmest October, November, December.
Andrea’s Point gives you a good slice of Raja Ampat’s smaller residents, especially if you’re into the macro stuff. We’ve had good luck here finding Denise’s pygmy seahorses tucked into gorgonians, and it’s a reliable spot for various gobies like the Scaly-nape Tentacle Goby. Look closely at the anemones, as you’ll often find clown anemonefish tending their homes. It’s not the thumping action of some other sites, but we’d suggest it for divers who enjoy a slower pace, hovering to really observe. Good for photographers with a keen eye for the tiny things.
