The Edge
The Edge, off the village of Umapura on north-east Ternate, is a wall that seems to drop forever. Overhangs and crevices riddle the face, and sponges, black coral bushes and large corals cover everything. It is a relaxed dive for shining a torch into holes, and frogfish have been found under the overhangs near the top.
