External Grand Bank

The Entree Bank is certainly the largest coral reef in the surrounding area, it has a length of 6-7 miles and a very variable width.

It is the outermost bank, that is, the bank that first touches the oceanic waters of the Mozambique Channel.

The structure of the reef is oceanic: here we have a shallow depth of -15 m, from where, sailing west, a deeper descent towards the sea begins.

The fall of the reef is sometimes steeper and sometimes softer. The dive is carried out mainly at high tide conditions, when the prevailing current runs from north-west to south-east.

This is a very simple dive in terms of dynamics: it is a classic wall to follow carried by the current where we can encounter gray sharks, white tip and hammerhead sharks, mobulas, eagle rays, a huge school of humpback snappers, large trevally in the hunt.
