    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Tauenai Pass, within Ant Atoll, offers a drift through a coral channel. We’ve seen reef sharks patrolling the deeper sections, and often schools of jacks congregating where the current picks up. It’s a site for divers comfortable with moving water, focusing on pelagic action rather than macro life.
