Diving Information
The Maldives is one of the best diving destinations of the world. Divers can see mantas, whale sharks, valleys of luscious soft corals, colourful gardens of hard corals, huge tunas, eagle rays, over 1000 species of fish around the reefs, countless species of invertebrates. The atolls of the Maldives are dotted with hundreds of dive sites with many more yet to be discovered.
The circular reefs, enclosing a shallow lagoon, are some of the best dive sites.
Reef life is prolific with the species of marine life estimated to be in their tens of thousands. Frogfish, leaf fish, ghost pipefish and a multitude of nudibranchs. Whether it is the awesome manta ray, the graceful grey reef shark or the tiny, brightly coloured flatworm, the Maldives has it all.
Channels or Kandus
These are gaps or breaks in the outer reef of the Atoll where the tidal and ocean currents wash onto and off the central lagoon, often creating a hot spot of action especially during periods of good current. It is not uncommon to see large numbers of Grey or White tip sharks or large squadrons of Eagle Rays effortless riding the incoming ocean streams in the channel mouths.
Thilas
A Thila is a submerged Coral Reef , typically with a flat surface coming to between 9 and 12 metres of the surface. The sides often have small caves and overhangs. These present some of the most interesting and exiting dive sites as they attract a huge populous of schooling fish and hard and soft coral growth. Thilas are found both inside the Atolls and in the channels.
Giris
These are generally smaller round coral reefs that come within a few metres of the surface, although still submerged. A similar rich environment to a Thila, often with caves, overhangs and swim throughs.
Out Reef
The fringing reef generally starts at around 2 metres depth, shelving down to a forty metre shoulder and then plunging into the ocean depths. Being on the outside of the Atoll the outreef is subject to passing traffic. This is where Whalesharks, Mantas, and Hammerheads and giant Tuna cruise above the deep water on the outer fringes of the Maldives.
