Sanganeb South

別名： Sanganeb South Point · Sanganeb Southwest Plateau

Most dives at Sanganeb take place here, at the southern end of the atoll where the lighthouse stands. The south side drops as a sheer wall to about 10 m and continues as a slope, with small caves and crevices cut into its upper part. To the west lies a plateau whose base, at 10 to 15 m, carries large table corals and forests of whip corals, and whose outer edge falls to about 33 m at the southwest tip. A large barracuda school stays at the site and lets careful divers come very close, while jacks, tuna, snappers and grey reef sharks patrol the edge and hammerheads, silky sharks and manta rays appear now and then. Titan triggerfish nest in a sandy strip at the foot of the wall and defend their nests, and the site is also recommended as a night dive.
