Atoll site list including Kurali Corner.
Kurali Corner is a Meemu Atoll reef corner on the north-west side of Kurali Island. The reef slopes away from a healthy coral top into deeper water, with sand eels, turtles, stingrays, and grey reef sharks becoming more likely when the current lines up. It suits experienced divers who are comfortable working a sloping wall and watching the flow.
