Royal Charlotte Reef, Malaysia

Malaysia / Labuan /
(Terumbu Semarang Barat Besar). A beacon has been erected on the reef. Almost circular in shape with a diameter of approximately one kilometre, Royal Charlotte Reef has more boulders that dry out, particularly to the southeast and there is a light tower at the eastern end.

The fully enclosed lagoon is 23m deep with excellent shallow diving around pretty coral heads and pillars. Although the lagoon has no entrance, it is awash at all but low water, so there is healthy growth.
