Why dive here
VARIHURAA KANN is a dive where divers can encounter blue sharks, sea turtles and spinner dolphins. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest March, April, May.
Varihuraa Kann is a gentle drift over a shallow coral reef in Baa Atoll, dropping to about 25m. It’s a good spot for newer divers to experience the currents that define many Maldivian sites, without being overwhelmed. We often see reef sharks here, cruising out in the blue, and the corals host a fair number of colourful reef fish. It’s a straightforward, pleasant dive.
