Wall and pinnacle, Swaraj Dweep

A wall dive that earns its name when chevron barracuda stack into a spinning school around the pinnacle. Intermediate Continental site — more current than Aquarium, less commitment than Johnny's.

Hazards
- low · Schooling pelagics
Barracuda ignore divers if you hold still in the blue.
- moderate · Depth on the wall
The wall side drops through 25–30 m. Agree a turn depth; the school will still be there in the blue at 18–22 m.
Marine life
Typical: chevron barracuda, wall coral, turtle
Seasonal: tornado schooling in current
