Kikki Reef is a spectacular wall dive 100 metres long overlooking the depths opf the Vaadhoo Kandu. It is set back into a large cavity in the reef and starts at either end with jagged overhangs cutting through the reef between 5 and 30 metres. a long swim-through in the wall at 28 metres is a good strating point if the current is flowing to the west. The best diving is between 5 and 15 metres where there are many caves and ledges. Small delicate purple seafans cover the ceilings of the overhangs and in the caves are many species of grouper. The caves are also full of immaculate soldierfish and shadow-fin soldierfish. Commonly seen on this reef are the scribbled filefish, trumpetfish and the freckled hawkfish.

If divers look carefully on the reef they may see well camouflaged leaf fish, and in the caves are white-banded possum wrasse and cheeked pipefishh. This reef is covered in invertebrates and is a marvel for the variety of reef fish it houses.

Diving Hints: Divers are advised at this site to take their time and look for the little things on offer. while closely studying the fauna be particularly careful with buoyancy control as many of the overhangs are shallow. Stay out from the overhangs if not in full control.
