About Kottefaru Wall
Kottefaru Wall is a guided boat dive on the southeast edge of Raa Atoll with a sheer wall, colorful soft-coral slopes, and a steep drop into deeper water. It suits divers who are comfortable following a drift, reading a wall profile, and staying close to the guide as the reef edge moves from plateau to drop-off. Plan it as an intermediate wall run that feels best when current and timing are working together.
