Triple Rock in South Ari Atoll is a straightforward dive, perfect for beginners or a relaxed second dive. The name describes it well: three distinct rock formations rise from the sandy seabed, each dotted with anemones and clownfish. We've often seen small reef sharks circling the perimeter and the occasional turtle resting on the coral bommies. It’s a gentle introduction to Maldivian reef diving.
