Barely submerged bank of rock or coral (4)

I believe the answer is:

reef

(Other definitions for reef that I've seen before include "Ridge of rock just under water" , "Rocks in shallow water - kind of knot" , "Chain of rocks underwater" , "Low-lying coral ridge" , "Type of knot" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
