Dive into the Seas and Oceans
Dive Trip @ Submerged Reef - Cyrene Reef

The Reef is also along major shipping lanes for huge container ships and other ocean-going vessels.

Introduction
A reef that's in the way?

Made up three submerged reef flats: Terumbu Pandan, Pandan Beacon and South Cyrene Beacon, Cyrene Reef is ringed by petrochemical plants on Jurong Island and Pulau Bukom. It is also right next to the container terminals on the mainlands.

"Cyrene Reef is a key maritime crossroads where east-west traffic routes cross north-south traffic routes. In the order of five hundred ships in excess of 5,000 DWT per day transit the waters around the reefs."

Fortunately, a series of beacons that ring Cyrene Reefs prevent collisions with the Reefs. The last major collision, as reported on the MPA website, was on 5th Dec 2018 when a ferry ran aground on the Reefs.

Cyrene also has fabulous living reefs!

In one survey reported in 1991, Cyrene Reefs was found to have "the highest diversity of hard corals, with 28 genera covering 48.06% of the transect". (from Hsu, L.H.L. and Chou, L.M. 1991.

The future of Cyrene?

Let's hope the Reef takes on the indomitable spirit of its namesake warrior woman, and fights bare-handed with the Lion to stay alive.
