Tide-timed boat access makes local planning essential.
Abyss is an advanced Nosy Be boat dive with a steep drop-off, best timed to the ebb tide, where schooling fish and rays can gather along the drop.
About Abyss
Abyss is a tide-sensitive boat dive in Madagascar's Nosy Be region, built around a steep drop-off that falls away from a shallow top into open blue water. The dive is shaped by a narrow ebb-tide window, so local timing matters as much as the terrain itself, and the profile suits divers who are comfortable descending and holding position on a moving wall while watching for schooling fish and rays.
