Nakaley
★★★★☆
(559)
Nakaley reef is about 200 meter long. About 10 meters from the beach starts the reef stretching out into the sea 50 meters and running exactly from north to south. The reef gradually drops to 12 - 14 meters depth in front of a sandy bottom. The reef is good for beach diving or boat approach by sea.
Nakaley reef hosts many reef fishes like damsel, fusilier, snappers, butterfly fishes. Octopuses and moray ells are often encountered and on the sandy bottom stingrays are resting.
