Malahy Satay ‘borders’ on Shaab Sataya in the south-east of the Fury Shoals.

It’s a circular reef with several pinnacles carpeted in coral that looked to have dropped into the sea from above. Malahy features depths, ranging from 5 to 20 meters. At 30 meters, there’s a drop-off reaching into the infinity of the abyss.

Malahy is being frequented by morays of all sorts, such as snowflake muray, the undulated muray, the dragon muray and the peppered muray. Both Hawksbill turtles and green turtle hoover over vegetated bottoms. Napoleons can be spotted in numbers, as can black-blotched and blue-spotted stingrays.
