Mbwangawa

Mbwangawa is part of the barrier reef along the east coast, combining hard and soft corals with two large patches of plate coral. Lobsters hide under the plates, and cuttlefish, octopus, peacock mantis shrimps and starry pufferfish are common. Where the slope ends on sand, stingrays, guitarfish and blue-spotted rays rest, and turtles are often seen. A mild current makes it a relaxed drift dive.
