Grand Canyon
Why dive here
With 364+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, blacktip reef sharks, dugongs, eagle rays and giant moray eels - Grand Canyon offers some of Lakshadweep's richest diving.
The Grand Canyon site in Lakshadweep lives up to its name, a truly massive sand channel cutting through the reef. It’s not the most colourful dive, but the sheer scale is impressive, with walls of hard coral rising on either side. We often spot big Napoleon wrasse cruising along the edge, and the occasional reef shark will glide through the deeper sections. This site is surprisingly mellow for its depth, making it a good choice for newer divers looking to explore deeper water without strong currents.
