From satellite this reef reads Very Good — roughly 37% living cover. We have not surveyed it in the water, so fish counts and big-encounter ratings stay pending. We don't estimate them.

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.
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
