The following is a description of some of the dive sites we may visit during your liveaboard safari aboard Blue Voyager.

Fish Head

Fish Head (North Male), also known as Shark Point or Mushimasmingili Thila, fits the classic definition of a Thila -a large isolated flat top reef rising sharply from the inner atoll floor at 40 to 50m to around 10m from the surface. It is one of the best sites for seeing sharks. Featuring a series of caves and overhangs in between where you can see thousands of blueline snappers against a backdrop of black coral bushes and large gorgonians.

Miyaru Faru

Unsurprisingly, given that ‘miyaru’ means ‘shark’ in Dhivehi, sharks feature prominently at this North Male spot! At around 30 metres there is an overhang that can shield you from the strength of the passing current. With an incoming current, the visibility can be excellent and the parade of pelagic fish and local residents, impressive. You might see a number of grey reef sharks as well as barracuda, kingfish and tuna. Large groups of eagle rays and their larger cousins, the manta rays, are often seen here filter feeding in the plankton-rich water.

Fotteyo Kandu -Vaavu Atoll

Many scuba divers consider Fotteyo Kandu to be the bestdive site in the Maldives and it is also rated among the top 5 dive sites in the world. The mouth of the channel is exposed to the ocean and during northeast monsoon when the currents are incoming, a good variety of pelagic hunters gather at the entrance to the channel. Species commonly spottedhere include grey reef shark patrolling the channel mouth, jack and tuna in the deeper water, schools of midnight snappers and red snapper form in huge groups. The wall features caves, overhangs and swim-throughs atdifferent depths. These caves and overhangs are filled with colourful yellow colour like soft coral, deeper caves and overhangs are filled with huge bushes of black corals.

Kandooma Thila –South Male Atoll

Shaped like a teardrop, Kandooma Thila is one ofthe most spectacular dives in the South Male Atoll, for scenery as well as for prolific fish life.

Guraidhoo Kandu South

Since the eastern side of this South Male channel is open ocean, large predatory fish can regularly be spotted here. This site is famous for sightings of sharks, schools of eagle rays and the occasional sail fish and hammerheads. The best condition to do the dive is when the current is flowing into the Atoll. The dive begins on the outer reef following the current into the atoll. Most ofthe pelagic species can be observed on the eastern side, where the reef drops off into the deep ocean. At the end of the dive in the channel, along the reef you can find overhangs with plenty of soft coral growth and small fish.
