Before you book
How good is the house reef at Vakkaru?
The resort's own materials describe the house reef as having unique marine biodiversity and deep blue holes, with the resort map marking a dedicated Blue Hole House Reef entry point. A separate zone near the overwater residences is marked for strong current, worth knowing before a first swim off the deck.
