Description

Paperback / Softcover

Explore the vibrant underwater world of southern Africa with The Reef Guide, a comprehensive reference to over 800 species of reef fishes and invertebrates found along the east and south coasts.

Building on the success of Dennis King’s earlier works, this beautifully illustrated guide showcases 578 fish species and covers a wide variety of marine life, including anemones, starfish, snails, crabs, and shrimps.

Each species is accompanied by full-colour photographs and detailed, easy-to-understand descriptions, making identification simple and enjoyable. While centered on southern Africa, this guide also covers marine life found along the east African coast and the islands of the western Indian Ocean—Seychelles, Mauritius, Réunion, Madagascar, the Comoros, and the Maldives.

Whether you’re a diver, snorkeler, rock-pool explorer, angler, or marine aquarist, The Reef Guide is an essential companion for your ocean adventures.
