Auiapuni Reef
Why dive here
With 71+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda and pufferfish - Auiapuni Reef offers some of Malpelo Island's richest reef diving. Water ranges 28-30°C, warmest June, September, October.
Auiapuni Reef offers a solid dive for those visiting Malpelo. You'll find a good spread of reef fish and some decent coral formations. It's a reliable spot for a second or third dive, especially when the conditions are a bit choppier elsewhere. We'd suggest it for divers who appreciate consistent reef activity without the strong currents found at other Malpelo sites.
