Passe bateau sud

Dramatic reef wall, cave, and sharky pass best suited to supervised divers who can handle current and a more technical profile.
About Passe bateau sud
Passe bateau sud is a southern Mayotte boat pass built around a dramatic reef wall, cavities, and sand pockets, with enough relief to keep the profile interesting from the shallower section into the more technical part. It is a current-sensitive, expert-supervised dive where the reward is close encounters with sharks and other big pelagic life in clear lagoon water.
