About Rutaki Drops

Situated meters away from the Rutaki Passage. As you reach the end of the Rutaki Passage, you will get to a beautiful clean sandy channel. This channel is a great drift and leads to a drop off. This dive is very similar to the Abyss, just much easier due to low surface currents and surge. A very scenic dive with great exploring and photo opportunity.
