This seems to be due to deeper/colder currents that aliment the shallower waters around the atoll. While coral bleaching can be seen inside the lagoon, it is mainly restricted to the first 20m/60ft of surface waters. Below 20m coral life is still rich due to a notable thermocline. The outer reefs however still look quite healthy at all levels. . . #corals #fishofinstagram #protecttheocean #marinelife #reeflife #underwaterphotography #underwaterworld #underwatermagazine #divermag #paditv #total_fauna https://www.instagram.com/p/B1cHr6Hg_UL/?igshid=bb066wpm1loa
