Why dive here
With 95+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, sea turtles, spinner dolphins and whale sharks - Manta Point Dhiya Adi Faru offers some of North Malé Atoll's richest diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest April, May, July.
Manta Point Dhiya Adi Faru is one of those places where you just settle in and wait. It’s a shallow reef, topping out at 21 meters, making it a good pick for newer divers. We often find ourselves just kneeling on the sand, eyes scanning the blue for the big shapes. While manta sightings aren't guaranteed, when they do show up for a clean, they often hang around, giving you plenty of time to take them in. Keep an eye out for reef sharks passing through as well.
