About this site
Baracuda Point in Sri Lanka offers thrilling drift dives along steep walls and rocky outcrops in the Gulf of Mannar. Strong currents attract large pelagics like barracuda, jacks, and reef sharks. Vibrant soft corals and sponges cover the terrain, while turtles and moray eels frequent the crevices. Visibility varies but often exceeds 20 meters. Best suited for experienced divers due to the currents.
