Bikini

Bikini, we think, is one of Sodwana's quiet achievers. It's not the deepest site, maxing out around 20 metres, but it consistently delivers. We've spent many happy hours here just drifting, eyes peeled for the smaller stuff that makes macro photographers swoon. We love the way the reef is structured, providing endless nooks for creatures like the Hairy Scorpionfish or a well-camouflaged Candy Cane Wrasse. You'll often find us here, especially if the current isn't too feisty, poking around the corals looking for nudibranchs, or maybe spotting a juvenile boxfish darting between the polyps. It's a site that rewards patience, often surprising us with something like a Scribbled Pipefish tucked away, or a pair of Half-circled Angelfish flitting through a gorgonian. Bikini is perfect for anyone who loves taking it slow, searching for the intricate details of the reef, and it's particularly forgiving for newer divers or those wanting to extend their bottom time without going too deep.
