Why dive here
With 133+ marine species recorded in the area - including blacktip reef sharks, sea turtles, spinner dolphins and whale sharks - Hammerhead Point offers some of North Ari Atoll's richest diving. Water sits around 29°C.
Hammerhead Point lives up to its name, a reliable spot for encountering scalloped hammerheads, especially at first light. We often drop deep, around 30 meters, to catch them rising from the depths. Currents here can be strong, so it’s best for experienced divers comfortable with drift diving. Beyond the hammerheads, you'll likely spot grey reef sharks patrolling the drop-off.
