About Tanavula Point Drift
Tanavula Point Drift is a current-washed reef-and-wall dive in the Florida Islands, best approached as a boat-based, guide-led drift. The slope gathers fish, fans, and hard coral around the point, then drops into a wall where moving water can concentrate bigger life. Plan for current timing, changing conditions, and local operator support.
