    JC Slope is a shallow spot in Sumatra, maxing out at about 10 meters. We found it a decent place for a very relaxed drift, keeping the reef to our left as we headed southeast. It’s mostly staghorn coral, a nice enough field of it, but beyond that, there isn't much to hold your attention. We’d recommend it if you’re looking for an easy, undemanding dive, perhaps after a long surface interval or for newer divers.
