find whitetips, napoleons and eagle rays

North-east monsoon season
mostly reef to the right; be careful not to jump to
close to the entrance of the Alimatha channel, because
there the current might drag you into the channel; dive
along the drop off and have a look at the overhangs
between 25 – 30 m; along the wall you will find many
moray eels and often turtles; sometimes whitetip reef
sharks and eagle rays are passing; dive slowly, as the
wall is not very long
|
|
Safety:
the wall invites for a deep dive, watch your computer |

Experience
Level:
easy diving
|
|
Features:
because it is an outer reef frequently; there are
passing “big” fish
|
|
Speciality:
between 25 – 30 m there are small overhangs with whip
wire corals and in one overhang, there is a nice arch to
swim through
|
|
South-west monsoon season:
mostly reef to the left; if there is outgoing current in
the Alimatha Dekunu kandu, it is also an idee to jump
just in front of the corner in the channel, so you could
directly descend and have a look at the ribbon eels on
the terrace at the depth of 34 m; continue your dive on
the outer reef, whitetip reef sharks, napoleons, eagle
rays can be seen; along the edge you find many schools
of different fish

Photography:
with clear water it’s nice to take pictures from the
fish schools with the wide-angle lenses, otherwise macro
lenses |
