Why dive here
With 95+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, sea turtles, spinner dolphins and whale sharks - Eri North West Giri offers some of North Malé Atoll's richest diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest April, May, July.
Eri North West Giri is a nice, relaxed start to a Maldivian dive trip. We've often taken newer divers here, or just gone for a mellow second dive. The reef isn't dramatically deep, topping out at 24 metres, which means plenty of light for the corals. You’ll drift over some decent table corals and watch fusiliers and snapper cruise by. It's a good place to just breathe, get comfortable, and spot the usual reef suspects without needing to fight a current.
