Shore entry Measured

~447 m across the lagoon to the drop-off — a genuine swim, not a wade.

Living cover Measured

About 48% of the mapped reef reads as living coral or algae from satellite.

Heat history Measured

Peak heat stress 5.01 DHW since the imagery, no bleaching alert on record.

From satellite this reef reads Very Good — roughly 48% living cover. We have not surveyed it in the water, so fish counts and big-encounter ratings stay pending. We don't estimate them.
