Mikes Reef is a boat accessible salt water dive site, located in Aruba.
Huge corals guide you into the homes of big barracuda’s and rainbow runners patrolling coastline. Brain, mountain, star, and tower corals as well as deep water gorgonians and soft corals abound here. An excellent dive for macro photography.
Close to De Palm Island, this is considered one of Aruba’s best reef dives. Here, huge clusters of gorgonians, brain coral, flower coral, and star coral compose most of the environment, though brightly-colored sponges have also grabbed some space. It is especially popular with underwater macro photographers, who specialize in close-up and extreme close-up photos.
