Flying Reef

Located on the Atlantic side of Tobago, Flying Reef is a well-known reef amongst divers traveling to this area and is one of the best dive sites in Trinidad And Tobago. It’s relatively shallow at only 15m however it is full of stunning soft corals and giant sponges. The sheer variety of reef fish is just astounding and the colors are stunning. Divers can drift past the reef and see enormous colonies of plate coral as well as large Stingrays burying themselves in the sand surrounding the reef.

The current at this location can get pretty fast, hence the name ‘Flying Reef’. However, look out for Turtles, schools of Big Eye and Glass Eye Snapper, French Angelfish, and Porcupinefish. There is also a large ship’s anchor along the reef, which is usually surrounded by Pork Fish and Schools of Bermudan Chub. This is a fascinating and great dive for newbies introducing themselves to drift diving.
