Pura Mas Gading, shortened to PMG, is a reef site that can be dived as a reef dive or a drift, with a medium current. Volcanic rocks and coral bommies make up the terrain.
Yellow bannerfish swim around the volcanic rocks, and blue-spotted stingrays hide in the swim-throughs of the bommies. Look in the shadows of the reef for Chromodoris willani nudibranchs. Thermoclines are possible.
