Slope
Why dive here
With 176+ marine species recorded in the area - including dugongs, sperm whales, spinner dolphins, nautiluses and pufferfish - Slope offers some of Andaman Islands's richest diving. Water ranges 28-31°C, warmest April, May, June.
Slope is a gentle descent to 15 metres, a good spot for newer divers to get comfortable. We've often seen groups of snapper here, along with the occasional moray eel peering out from the rocks. The visibility is usually pretty reliable, making it an easy-going dive where you can focus on buoyancy and spotting smaller reef fish. It’s a solid introductory dive, not one for big pelagic action.
