    Madi gaa is a mellow dive, perfect for beginners or those easing into a trip. It’s a shallow coral reef, topping out at 16 meters, which means plenty of sunlight hits the corals. You’ll drift along, taking in the usual reef fish – fusiliers, snappers, maybe a few inquisitive parrotfish. It’s a gentle introduction to Baa Atoll’s underwater world.
