Mariveles Reef (Malay: Terumbu Mantanani; Tagalog: Bahura ng Mariveles; Vietnamese: đá Kỳ Vân; Mandarin Chinese: 南海礁; pinyin: Nánhǎi Jiāo), is located in the SW of Dangerous Ground in the Spratly Islands.[1] It is 59 kilometres (37 mi) slightly east of north from Swallow Reef and 35 nautical miles (65 km; 40 mi) southeast of Barque Canada Reef.[2]

It dries at high tide enclosing two large lagoons in a figure of eight formation with a sand cay between them. This small cay, 1.5–2 m high, and some isolated rocks are just visible at high water.[citation needed]

It is one of the areas in the Spratly Islands occupied by Malaysia. The Royal Malaysian Navy has maintained an "offshore naval station" there called "Station Mike" since 1986.[3] The atoll is also claimed by the People's Republic of China, Republic of China (Taiwan), the Philippines, and Vietnam.
