Grand Banc Extérieur

Also known as: Great Exterior Bank

The wall is rich in fish and covered with soft and hard corals. Grey and whitetip reef sharks are regular, and hammerheads appear mainly in January and February, with a few in December. Whale sharks are also reported here. Tuna, king mackerel, barracudas and schools of fusiliers complete the open-water life.
