Description
The Best of Maldives itinerary explores the central atolls of the archipelago — North and South Malé, Vaavu, Ari South, and Ari North— the heart of Maldivian diving and one of its most comprehensive combinations. The journey alternates between drifting in current-filled channels, pinnacles, and thilas covered in soft coral, as well as walls, a few wrecks, and calm lagoons, with a rhythm of up to three dives daily interspersed with relaxation on board. This area is known for its cleaning stations for reef mantas, schools of gray reef sharks, eagle rays, turtles, and seasonal encounters with whale sharks in Ari South. The dives are diverse and suitable for all levels, with sections of current rewarding those comfortable in open water. Available year-round, it is a balanced itinerary, perfect for a first experience aboard in the Maldives without sacrificing the excitement of the channels.
