The best time to see Mola Mola (Mola Alexandrini) is from July to October.
During this period, colder Indian Ocean currents bring mola mola closer to the reef, especially at:

Encounters are never guaranteed, but this is statistically the best season.
Not necessarily.
Crystal Bay can be dived by Open Water Divers, depending on:

• Sea conditions
• Individual diver comfort and skills
If conditions are more challenging, we may recommend:
• A different dive site on the same day

Safety always comes first.

• Guest experience and interests
This flexible approach allows us to maximize marine life encounters while maintaining safety.
