About

What to expect

Our name comes from the dragonets, a family of small reef fish, and the mandarinfish is the most famous of them. At sunset, mandarinfish pairs rise from the coral rubble to dance together for a few minutes.

A dusk dive is the way to see it: a short, calm dive as the light fades and the night reef wakes up.

Who it is for: Certified divers, including macro photographers.

Good to know

  • It is a scuba dive, so a certification is needed.
  • It starts around sunset. See today's sunset time in the live conditions.
  • Bring a dive light and use it gently: mandarinfish are shy and hide from bright light.
