Why dive here
With 95+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, sea turtles, spinner dolphins and whale sharks - Gasfinolhu House Reef offers some of North Malé Atoll's richest reef diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest April, May, July.
The Gasfinolhu House Reef in North Malé Atoll is a solid option for a relaxed afternoon dive, especially if you’re just getting your fins wet in the Maldives. We usually drop in around the 10-meter mark and drift along the reef slope, which rarely goes deeper than 19 meters. You’ll spot the usual suspects here: plenty of reef fish flitting between the soft corals, maybe a turtle munching on some seagrass, and often a few blacktip reef sharks cruising in the distance. It’s a gentle introduction to Maldivian diving, perfect for beginners or those looking for a laid-back photo opportunity.
