Plongée à Mohéli Marine Park — Comoros

Mohéli Marine Park protects the waters around the Comoros' smallest island, where coelacanths — living fossils once thought extinct — dwell in deep caves. Green turtles nest on park beaches, humpback whales calve offshore, and the reefs are healthy and virtually undived. Among the world's most remote and rewarding frontier destinations.
