Dive Overview

PADI certified instructors initiate you into one of the Maldives premier dive spots. Millions of years of coral growth. Schools of playful fish. They part in great clouds as you go deeper.

Dive Information

Diving In The Maldives

The Maldives covers an area of 90,000 sq. km and lie in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Its 1196 coral islands are grouped into 26 Atolls. Almost all atolls are surrounded from a large ring-shaped coral reef. It protects the islands inside the atoll against high waves and rough sea.

Water temperature varies on the reefs (0-30 m.) only from 26-30 degrees Celsius. In the lagoons the water temperature may reach slightly higher levels. On the reef you can also see beautiful colourful reef fish like the Sweet lips, the Triggerfish, the Butterfly fish, the Porcupine fish and many, many more. You will find an amazing variety of fish in different colours and shapes, turtles, sharks and manta rays.

On the reef you can see many different kinds of coral in different shades and shapes and surely you will agree that it is one of the wonders of the world. Corals are made up of very tiny sensitive animals called coral polyps and as responsible divers we all should avoid touching them as this action will have a dramatic result.
