    StandoutDramatic wall topography

    Golden Wall in Baa Atoll is a nice, relaxed wall dive, easy enough for newer divers. The reef drops gently to 26m, covered in a mix of soft corals that give the wall its golden hue in the sunlight. You'll often spot scorpionfish camouflaged on the ledges and plenty of fusiliers zipping past. It’s a good spot for an easy afternoon dive if you're looking for colour without strong currents.
