Protected wall reef with overhangs and easy shallow water.
Tri Mix is a protected Maldives wall reef in North Malé Atoll, with a shallow top reef that drops into a wall, small overhangs, and a mini cavern. The reef stays interesting across the whole profile, with turtles in the columns and zebra or nurse sharks, nudibranchs, and scorpionfish tucked low on the wall. It works well as a controlled boat dive when the sea is calm.
