Atoll de Fakarava
Why dive here
With 197+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, blacktip reef sharks, dolphins, giant moray eels and grey reef sharks - Alibaba offers some of Fakarava's richest diving.
Alibaba in Fakarava is an intermediate dive, reaching a maximum depth of 28 metres. We often find ourselves drifting along a gentle current here, keeping an eye out for grey reef sharks patrolling the outer reef. It's a relaxed dive, good for getting your bearings in the atoll, and suits those comfortable with mild drift conditions. Expect a decent scattering of fusiliers and the occasional napoleon wrasse.
