Kani corner
Kaafu Atoll
Kani Corner can be a very exciting drift dive. White-tip reef Sharks like to rest on the sandy slope below the reef at 25m to 30m. Here you can often see Eagle Rays pass by in all their glory too. In the right season encounters with Manta Rays is not uncommon around coral blocks at 25m. Here by a small ledge there is a cave. This is Kani Corner and around this point are a variety of schooling Snapper and Fusiliers as well as Barracuda and Blue-fin Jacks. Napoleon Wrasse often pass by looking at you with their chameleon-like eyes. At 15m Oriental Sweetlips congregate amid all the confusion of fish activity.
