Why dive here
With 95+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, sea turtles, spinner dolphins and whale sharks - Viligili Corner offers some of North Malé Atoll's richest diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest April, May, July.
Viligili Corner in North Malé is a solid drift dive, a reliable spot when the currents are running. We usually drop in around the corner itself, letting the water carry us along the outer reef slope. Keep an eye out for grey reef sharks patrolling the drop-off and the occasional eagle ray gliding past. It's a good intermediate site for those comfortable with a bit of current, offering consistent action rather than dramatic pinnacles.
