Butterflyfish at Banana Reef Dive Site in the Maldives

Banana Reef is known to be one of the best dive sites in the Maldives.  Banana Reef dive site is named after the banana-shaped area in the north-eastern part of the dive site, where the caves, gutters and overhangs are filled with fish life and soft coral. Banana Reef was the first ever dive site to be discovered in the Maldives. An excellent way to observe the area is to begin the dive with your left shoulder to the reef. You will see different kinds of fishes including bannerfish, oriental sweetlips, giant squirrelfish and many more. Underwater turbulence can be expected when the currents are strong so make sure that you stay near the wall and don’t let the current push you away. Boat traffic can be heavy times at Banana Reef which is why a surface balloon is necessary.
