Why dive here
With 95+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, sea turtles, spinner dolphins and whale sharks - Joy Corner offers some of North Malé Atoll's richest diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest April, May, July.
Joy Corner is a gentle drift in North Malé, perfect for newer divers. The main reef plateaus around 15 metres, giving plenty of time to take in the fusilier schools and occasional reef sharks cruising past. We often spot turtles here, just casually munching on the corals. It’s a straightforward, pleasant dive if you're looking for an easy afternoon.
