An almost 2km-long reef with scattered coral heads along its back (leeward) edge, Thetford provides numerous dive sites to choose from. Be careful of your navigation here and take along a safety sausage as it is easy to find yourself disoriented well away from the boat with no dive time left.

An almost 2km-long reef with scattered coral heads along its back (leeward) edge, Thetford provides numerous dive sites to choose from. Be careful of your navigation here and take along a safety sausage as it is easy to find yourself disoriented well away from the boat with no dive time left.
Sandy floors in between the numerous coral bommies are covered with smaller coral patches and numerous blue staghorn thickets. Look among these for giant clams, butterflyfish, rabbitfish, damsels, angelfish and the periodic pipefish. Moving over to the bommies, you’ll be confronted with many swim-throughs—most are partially closed on top, sending magical shafts of light down into these mysterious passageways as you swim through them.
The large gorgonian fans and soft corals that occur in these tunnels need special care so watch your fins. Anemones are common with several species of commensal fish and beautiful transparent shrimps cavorting in their tentacles.
