Palm Reef in North Malé Atoll offers a straightforward coral dive. You'll find a good spread of hard corals here, with smaller reef fish darting between the branches. It's a relaxed spot, often with gentle currents, making it a comfortable dive for those looking for a quiet afternoon underwater. We'd suggest it for divers who appreciate the subtle beauty of a healthy reef rather than dramatic pelagic encounters.
