  • Guaranteed tiger shark encounters at Fuvahmulah Atoll 
  • Spot many grey reef sharks in Huvadhoo’s Villingili Kandu 
GAAFU ALIFU ATOLL
Vilillingili Kandu
Villingili Kandu is a channel south of the island of Villingili in Gaafu Alifu Atoll, which is known to see many grey reef sharks. The spectacle at the edge of the channel is mostly enjoyed with a reef hook.
When the no-decompression limit, or 70 bar, is reached, it is possible to complete the dive by drifting inside the channel in order to reach the north or south reef.
This dive site is especially interesting during the northeast monsoon and is suitable for advanced divers with good experience in currents and deep dives. The use of a reef hook is recommended to avoid damaging the reef.

Kondey Coral Garden
This dive site is located south of Kondey Island. The site is almost 2 km long and hosts dozens of hard coral species. The main attraction is the beautiful coral garden, but you can also spot turtles and small fish species who live there. The dive site is accessible all year long. This site is very easy, but divers should be experienced and have very good control of their buoyancy in order not to damage this precious coral garden.

GAAFU DHAALU ATOLL
Madaveli
Madaveli, known for its shipwreck diving site, and Vaadhoo, known for its bioluminescent beach, are two other notable islands in Gaafu Dhaalu Atoll. 
​
FUVAHMULAH:
Tiger Zoo
In front of the harbour entry of the isolated island of Fuvahmulah, we dive with a local dive centre, the Tiger Zoo. Sometimes 15 or more different tiger sharks come up from the drop-off.

​South Plateau Fuvahmulah
It's sometimes a challenging dive in the blue, depending on the currents. Everything can happen from Tiger sharks, Hammerheads, Whale sharks, etc.

North Plateau, Fuvahmulah
Explore the beautiful and intact coral life of Fuvahmulah.
