The north side of Biyaadhoo Kandu has many caves and overhangs near the corner between 5 to 20 meters. The channel wall is steep – at one point it is undercut from five to 20 meters – whereas the outside reef corner slopes more gently. The channel is quite deep, descending to 40 meters. Inside the channel 200 meters from the corner, is a large outcrop of reef 20 meters long at a depth of 30 meters. Turtles frequent the reef, as well as surgeon and black snapper. At Cocoa Corner you can meet reef sharks, rays and napoleons and you might spot a sleeping leopard shark in the sand.
