Napoleon Reef
★★★★★
(61)
One way easy dive on this outside reef in the south east of the South Male atoll. This can be a long drift or a short drift dive, depending on the current. Beautiful dive on a gentle quite steep slope with awesome encounters at every depth.
Frequently seen: White tip and grey reef sharks, hawksbill and huge green turtles, tunas, moray eels, napoleons, occasionaly mantas. Also a perfect dive site for macro lovers.
