With 95+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, sea turtles, spinner dolphins and whale sharks - Uthuru Ethere Faru offers some of North Malé Atoll's richest reef diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest April, May, July.
Uthuru Ethere Faru in North Malé Atoll offers a straightforward, relaxed reef dive, ideal for those getting comfortable in the Maldivian waters. The reef plateaus around 17 meters, making it a great spot for longer bottom times and a chance to really slow down. We often find juvenile reef sharks patrolling the sandy edges, along with schools of snappers tucked into the coral formations. It’s a gentle introduction to the atoll's underwater world, never overwhelming, but always delivering a good dose of colorful fish life.
