Between 60 and 140 miles south of Malé lies a chain of five major atolls, made up of countless islands, reefs, sandbars, and thilas that offer an incredible variety of world-class dive sites. Dramatic channels filled with sharks, eagle rays, and large schools of snapper and jackfish are among the highlights of this region. Our Equatorial trips feature flexible itineraries designed to showcase the very best of the central atolls en route to and from Malé—along with vibrant coral gardens in Thaa and Laamu Atolls and the renowned manta cleaning stations of Meemu Atoll. Despite extensive exploration over the years, this area still holds hidden gems waiting to be discovered—offering endless opportunities for true adventure.
