Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Front Porch
This reef extends south of Bari Reef at the site of the former Sunset Beach Resort (now gone). Entry is a bit north of the sandy beach in the picture. 12 degrees 09 min 59.6 sec N, 68 degree 17 min 13.5 sec W.
Drive toward the beach on the very rutted dirt road from the northern traffic circle, following the new yellow marker that points to Bari Reef. Enter the water at the sand beach to the left of the sunken pier and tiny yellow cinder-block building at the northern end of the site. You can also get to the southern end of the reef at the Eden Beach Resort and proceed north on the dirt road by the water.

We were staying at Den Laman next door, and did this dive late one afternoon as a last minute additional dive. We weren't expecting much, but we were pleasantly surprised. There is a mix of sand and coral, even at depth, rather than the solid coral at other locations, so we saw a variety of sand dwellers (jaw fish), as well as the usual coral inhabitants. Small wreck at about 80-90 feet. Peacock flounder, lizard fish, angels, scorpion, trumpet fish, a long line of fish commuting with the rush hour, squid, and the other usual species.
