Moya Reef

Moya Reef is the home to plenty of Reef Sharks, just a 15 minute boat ride away from Barefoot Kuata Resort you can find a winding Reef Wall with lots of swim throughs and small caves to make your dive extra adventurous. A sandy bottom reflects the sun rays and lets the water glow in a beautiful turquoise colour.
