    Jemima Giri in North Malé Atoll is a solid choice for an easy dive. It’s a nice, shallow reef, topping out at 16 meters, which makes it perfect for newer divers or those looking for a relaxed bottom time. We often see schools of snapper hugging the reef structure and plenty of inquisitive parrotfish grazing on the corals. The currents here are usually mild, making it a very comfortable drift if there’s any movement at all. It’s a good spot to just settle in and watch the daily reef activity unfold.
