It is disappointing that “Coral Reefs” does not publish “Reef Sites” any longer, but you can submit “Reef Sites” type articles to the following journals:

“Galaxea, Journal of the Coral Reef Studies” publishes Photogallery: GalaxeaSubmitGLineENG_2022.pdf (jcrs.jp)

“Diversity” publishes ‘Interesting Images’: Diversity | Instructions for Authors (mdpi.com)

“Marine Biodiversity” publishes ‘Oceanarium’: Submission guidelines | Marine Biodiversity (springer.com)

There may be others.

I will look into these options and consider the best fit for my work.
