Haruina
Haruina lies on the east side of the island, directly in front of Atauro Dive Resort at Beloi. Hard corals build the shallow reef top, which starts at about 5 m, before the reef turns into a wall that drops beyond 100 m. Ataúro Tourism notes that a Conservation International survey counted more than 300 fish species here on a single dive. The site is known for drift diving, and the deep water nearby raises the chance of hammerhead sharks and tuna. Barracuda, fusiliers, trevally, snappers, hawksbill turtles and peacock mantis shrimp are among the common sightings, and currents can be strong around full and new moon.
