About this site
Mangrove Slope lies among the islands between Waigeo and Gam in Raja Ampat, West Papua, in the network of channels and small islands around Janggelo. This part of Raja Ampat is characterized by mangrove-fringed shorelines meeting steep reef slopes, typical of the sheltered waterways between the larger islands. The site reaches a maximum depth of around 20 metres, keeping the dive within the shallower reaches of the slope rather than dropping into deep water. Dive operators in the region typically run trips out of Waigeo or nearby liveaboards passing through this area.
