Neyo Kanmathi

This dive site, Neyo Kanmathi, is notable for its unique 'lunar landscape' reef top, offering a special diving experience. Divers often begin on the northern side, allowing the current to guide them from a steep wall across a sandy plateau to a gentle slope. While no specific history is mentioned, its topography creates a dynamic drift dive opportunity. The site is teeming with diverse marine life, including iconic species like whitetip reef sharks, turtles, and impressive napoleon wrasses and huge groupers. Batfish are frequently sighted, along with interesting smaller inhabitants such as honeycomb moray eels, shrimp, crabs, and snails. The prime time to visit Neyo Kanmathi for an unforgettable experience is between late September and November, when manta rays are commonly observed. Due to the variable currents and potential for drift diving, it is well-suited for intermediate to advanced divers. Both snorkelers and freedivers can enjoy the shallower parts of the reef and the rich marine biodiversity.
