Best for intermediate divers, 16-40m, boat entry, moderate current.
Kolalen is a wall and reef dive located on Majuro Atoll, featuring a dramatic drop-off that descends from 16 to 40 metres. This site is designed for drift diving, where moderate currents carry divers along the wall. Visibility typically ranges from 15 to 30 metres. Water temperatures remain consistent between 29 and 30 degrees Celsius throughout the year. Due to the potential for strengthening currents and surge, this site is suited for intermediate divers. Access is strictly by boat, and there are no fixed facilities on-site. Divers should time their entry to align with the current and maintain a surface marker for safety.
