Diving in the Far North Atolls will be spiced up with drift dives, cave diving and even the Maadhoo wreck. Wall dives are among some of the best you will find in the whole of the Maldives scuba diving region and the coral reefs shine in the sunny weather and clear waters that make for great visibility of up to 30m.
Baarah Thila, Haa Alifu Atoll - Numerous species of fish including Andaman sweetlips and blackfin barracudas school against a backdrop of hard coral growth, while leopard sharks rest on the sandy floor. Moving with the current over this submerged boulder is memorable with the possibility of witnessing over 30 mantas enjoying the attention at a wrasse cleaning station.
Nellahidhoo Thila, Haa Dhaalu Atoll - Witness huge numbers of black and white tip reef sharks feeding with apparently no interest in inquisitive divers. If you can distract yourself from the spectacular shark scene you will see giant trevallies and mantas soaring in the blue above you, with moray eels and nudibranchs living in the profusion of healthy coral structures below you.
