Map location needs adjusting
From SportDiver magazine; Cathedral Rock is dominated by two massive windows in the limestone rock, carved out over time by the strong currents that can thunder through this site. Located at Raja Ampat’s Boo Island, the windows stand guardian over a breathtakingly rich reef, with hard and soft corals growing on top of each other in a tumbledown profusion of colour and texture. Swirling around the reef in a continually dynamic display are swarms of blue-flash fusiliers, yellow snapper and unicornfish, while the resident school of batfish seems to hover stationary and unconcerned amongst the frenetic activity.
One of Raja Ampat’s best-loved sites, this limestone landscape teems with brilliant soft and fan corals, tunicates, batfish, grouper, triggerfish and fusiliers.
