If you are looking for outstanding diving, then Male Atoll is undoubtedly the place to go.
The most well-known atoll in the whole of the Maldives, Male is home to the only international airport as well as some spectacular coral reefs and a wide range of pelagic and reef fish life.
Male Atoll is a definite visit for pelagic fans, the underwater topography of Male Atoll especially North Male lends itself towards pelagic favourite environments. With current swept channels and outstanding drop offs to extensive coral reefs and caves you are almost guaranteed to see a shark on every dive. North Male is famous for the dive site Manta Point where you can see three manta cleaning stations in the one area! This seasonal dive site which runs May to November is located on the south eastern side of North Male, and in the last few months of the south-west monsoon it really comes alive! The dive site obtained its name from nearby Lankanfinolhu island which literally translates to Paradise! The gently sloping reef has three cleaning stations where these cleaver and beautiful mantas queue up to partake in the cleaning services on offer by the local wrasse! Whilst this is the main draw to this dive site there is plenty more going on, other sightings include sharks, eagle rays, hump head wrasse, turtles and well as a variety of critters in looking in the crack and crevices! Another well-known dive site to visit in this part of the Maldives is Banana reef, donning its name from its curved shape this is one first dives spots that put the Maldives on the map for divers! This protected marine park is donned by cliffs and overhangs, barracuda, snappers, and groupers!
