Gab Gab II
Reef inside Apra Harbor used by a tourist submarine, with daily fish feeding that draws large schools of trevally and close encounters with a big moray, hawksbill turtles and the occasional nurse shark. Coral pinnacles, sponge formations and blue elephant ear sponges lie between 11 and 21 m. Gab Gab sits on a restricted naval station, so access is by boat or for military personnel; beware of giant trevally near fingers.
