Shore entry Measured

~171 m across the lagoon to the drop-off — a genuine swim, not a wade.

Living cover Measured

About 21% of the mapped reef reads as living coral or algae from satellite.

Heat history Measured

Peak heat stress 3.65 DHW since the imagery, no bleaching alert on record.

From satellite this reef reads Good — roughly 21% living cover. We have not surveyed it in the water, so fish counts and big-encounter ratings stay pending. We don't estimate them.

Documented in North Malécited

Reef manta ray — feeding, western side

Bodu Hithi Kandu, on the west, is a northeast-monsoon feeding site: nearly half of several hundred recorded sightings were animals actively feeding, with courtship logged nearby.

Reef manta ray — courtship, eastern side

Lankan Beyru, on the east, is assessed as a reproductive area: hundreds of courtship sightings within a very large record. Its season is not stated in the assessment, so we do not assert one.

Not established here honest

Turtles — no atoll-level seasonal study exists; treat them as year-round residents rather than a season

The Lankan Beyru season — the site is documented, its months are not
