About Nudi Rock
Nudi Rock is a Misool drift-dive pinnacle in Raja Ampat, with a steep north wall, a shallower south plateau, and an east-side sandy bottom that make the site feel current-driven from the first drop. It is a liveaboard-style dive where timing and drift line matter, but the reward is a mix of hard coral, overhangs, and dense fish life around the rock.
