About Embudu Kandu

Um clássico mergulho de canal no Atol de Malé Norte, onde o canal Embudu encontra o oceano aberto. As paredes íngremes do recife caem para mais de 30m e são decoradas com gorgónias e corais moles. Tubarões-cinzentos patrulham a entrada do canal, raias-águia deslizam e grandes cardumes de fusileiros e xaréus caçam na corrente. A esquina do canal oferece uma área protegida onde os mergulhadores podem observar tubarões circulando acima.
