About this dive site

This dive site, Aravind Wall, is a substantial underwater rock formation spanning 2.5 kilometers from south to north, resembling a natural wall. Located off the coast of India, it is primarily navigated by following the extensive rock structure. While not having a known historical narrative, its unique geology serves as the primary underwater landmark. The wall is adorned with vibrant marine life, including beautiful populations of gorgonians and whip corals. It is also home to a diverse array of fish species such as snappers, groupers, jacks, fusiliers, and rabbitfishes, contributing to a rich ecosystem. As an advanced open water dive site, Aravind Wall offers significant depths and exploration opportunities for experienced divers. While no specific best time is mentioned, its impressive length and marine diversity promise rewarding dives. Due to its maximum depth of 28 meters and the requirement for advanced certification, it is not suitable for novice divers or casual snorkelers, but experienced freedivers may find sections of the wall appealing.
