Why dive here
With 98+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, sea turtles, spinner dolphins and whale sharks - Rasdhoo Madivaru Corner offers some of Rasdhoo Atoll's richest reef diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest April, May, July.
Madivaru Corner is the kind of site where you drift along, barely kicking, just watching the show unfold. It’s popular for good reason, often delivering a steady stream of grey reef sharks patrolling the drop-off. Keep an eye out for those elegant schools of eagle rays gliding past in the blue. We've seen them numerous times here, a real highlight. The coral here is largely staghorn, creating plenty of nooks and crannies for smaller reef fish like cardinalfish and blennies. It’s a pretty easy drift, suitable for most divers comfortable with a bit of current, making it a solid choice for a relaxing afternoon dive.
