Turtle Point is a southwest outer-reef drift in Addu Atoll. The dive starts on a shallow slope and settles onto a long reef face that keeps the route moving without becoming technical. It is a good match for divers who like steady trim, unhurried reef scanning, and a site where wildlife is the main draw rather than dramatic structure. Turtles are the headline, with reef sharks, batfish, and schooling fish adding to the run.
