North Malé Channel Mouths

North Malé Channel Mouths

About

The channel mouths on the western side of North Malé, in the same neighbourhood as the famous dive corners. Resident giant trevally hold on the reef edge, and dogtooth tuna sit deeper in the current. Pop at first light and jig the wall once the sun is up. This is not Hanifaru — that bay is a protected site and is not a fishing ground.
