Praia de Jangamo House Reef
Description of house reef dive sites
Batfish Pinnacle:
Schools of the enigmatic batfish gave this site its name, while plenty of game fish, potato bass, white tip sharks and turtles will also pop bye for a visit. Whip, plate and staghorn corals abound, whilst the pinnacle provides an interesting obstacle for encircling fish shoals. The pinnacle is also a great night dive, keep your eyes peeled for sleeping turtles and parrot fish under the ledges.

Caves & Playgrounds:
A breathtaking shallow dive and for many beginners a fantastic introduction to the underwater world. An amphitheatre is filled with shoals of blue-banded snappers, big eye cressi tails, a multitude of nudibranches, paperfish, morays and crustaceans. The various swim-thrus and boulders feature exciting species such as a resident Dragon Moray, Orangutan crabs and if you're lucky you might even spy an Octopus.

Devils Peak:
One of our greatest local dive sites, Devils Peak is an almost free standing rock with a swim through and is home to Potato Bass, an abundance of frogfish, arrow and porcelain crabs, ghost pipefish, resident paperfish and juvenile emperor angel fish. Plenty of caves and overhangs to explore for the more experienced diver!

Disneyland & Tombstone:
A perfect spot for the adventure seeker! As we descend, you'll purr at the massive schools of game fish cruising past in the blue, and once we're down there you'll be so amazed by the density of fish, you won't know where to look. The perfect place for sighting sting rays, sharks, greentree coral with resident morays intertwined, long nose hawk hawkfish, sea apples and shoals of game fish including the sensational sailfish.
Avg depth 30m | Max depth 36m
Hard Rock:
Situated just offshore, hard rock is a very short boat trip. Keep your eyes open for the most spectacular and interesting creatures you have ever seen! Cleaner shrimps, anyone for a manicure? Seamoths, bar tail flat heads, plenty of moray's, crayfish, devil firefish, flat worms, paperfish, reef sharks, cuttlefish and more...

Legoland:
This brand new dive site has recently been discovered in the bay just opposite Jeff's Pro Dive Centre. Lego is located just minutes away from our launching spot and is so untouched that every dive is almost guaranteed to throw up a surprise or two. Wonderful macro such as frogfish and shrimps abound on every dive, but keep you eyes open for pelagics above
Avg depth 24m | Max depth 28m
Pao Rock(s)!:
A Praia do Jangamo classic. Only a 3 min boat ride from the beach, this reef brags numerous species of morays, reef sharks, crocodile flat heads, mantis and cleaner shrimps, crustaceans and sting rays. Interested in macro photography? The resident nudibranch population will have you clicking away to your heart's content!
