Faru Corner is the outside reef of Hulhumale island. Many turtles reside on top part of the reef near large coral blocks and crevices under them. The top part of the reef can have strong surge and it is advised not to enter more shallow parts of the reef. Steep dropoff starts around the depth of 12 meters, going down to 30 meters and forming another sandy slope descending further. You can encounter sharks, passing by napoleons and eagle rays during the drift along the wall with large schools of various reef fish once you arrive at the corner.
