Kani Corner
A slope on the east side of North Malé near Kanifinolhu that runs down to sand at 25–30 m with big coral blocks at depth. At the right time manta rays visit the blocks or pass over the reef top; eagle rays, grey and whitetip reef sharks, turtles and napoleon wrasse are common, and hammerhead sightings are reported.
