Dive-site story
Located off the Konkan coastline near Malvan, the submerged reef flanking the offshore lighthouse island features a dramatic granite seascape. Large underwater boulders form swim-throughs, overhangs, and channels layered with soft corals and encrusting sponges. Because it sits further offshore than coastal beach sites, the area tends to enjoy better water clarity and encounters with schooling pelagics.
Submerged granite boulder formations create deep crevices and natural swim-throughs
Gorgonian sea fans and encrusting sea anemones sheltered under rock ledges
Regular sightings of hunting trevally and cruising pelagic fish
