These pearls of the Indian Ocean provide divers with an untouched, unexploited, underwater fantasy! This nation of 1200 islands is one of the world’s best diving spots, with it’s extreme variety of psychedelic colored marine life and sparkling white beaches. The Maldives has been voted in numerous worldwide magazines as the best diving location! No doubt why, the Maldives are known for incredible reefs, drift dives, wrecks, and ¾ of the world’s reef fish, not to mention the pristine turquoise waters and breathtaking beaches! The abundance of underwater life is probably the best feature and is what makes diving in the Maldives so outstanding. You can find everything from Groupers, Surgeonfish, Eels, Parrotfish, Giant Napoleon Wrasse, Unicornfish, Harlequin Sweetlips, even the occasional Whale Shark to the intriguing gobies, nudibranches, shrimps and corals; on one dive you have the chance to see it all! With Maldives’ colorful, nearly tame, massive schools of fish, it is also the world’s best location for fish photography.
Here you can experience three different types of diving: inside and outside the atolls, inside the channels, and drift diving. It is advised to always dive with a dive guide due to occasional currents that exist. All resorts and safari boats offer fully qualified and experienced PADI or NAUI dive guides that meet stringent government regulations. Diving schools, rental equipment, as well as decompression chambers are available if needed. Whether you choose to experience this diving paradise from a resort, safari boat, or the capital city, Male, this underwater fantasy will leave you diving for more!!
