Accommodation
Once the resorts open, divers would get the unique opportunity to plunge into waters where no diver has ever been and explore dive sites totally untouched. Along the northern fringing reef are five channels, the best of which is the westernmost one, known as Mulaku Kandu. The underwater topography of these are quite similar to the narrow spectacular channels of Vaavu Atoll. Mulaku Kandu has the unusual feature of a large submerged pinnacle rising from very deep water in the centre of the channel. The pinnacle is covered with beautiful soft corals and surrounded by a myriad of marine life. The channels on the western rim of the atoll will also make fantastic dive sites. As they are exposed, the best diving in these would be during the southwest monsoon. |
