Il Balenottero
Il Balenottero, off Nosy Be, is a dive we often visit when we're looking for something a little different. It’s not about huge pelagics here, but rather a more intimate experience. We’ve logged forty-six species, and it’s a site where you really want to slow down and scour the reef. Keep an eye out for the shy Mozambique mouth-breeder and the vibrant Bicolor nudibranch. The cowries, like the Carnelian and Eroded varieties, are also regulars. It's a relaxed dive, perfect for photographers or anyone who enjoys patient macro hunting.
