Popular Jan Thiel Beach offers restaurants, bars, a sandy beach but also a hidden gem just underneath the water surface…
The inlet has direct access to the Caribbean ocean, which provides freshwater supplies for a healthy growing house reef and an abundance of sea life. Right next to the dive center it’s very easy access to the water, where the house reef begins almost immediately. Inside the bay lies ‘Strea’, a wreck of a sailing boat. Very nice to end your dive with or for snorkeling. Outside of the Jan Thiel Bay, you will find a beautiful hilly reef which slopes down gently. The reef has a lot of hard and soft corals, donkey dung sea cucumbers, long spined black sea urchin, fishes, and very often you get the chance to swim with sea turtles. If you are lucky you can even spot dolphins or a passing whale!
