Why dive here
With 100+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, sea turtles, spinner dolphins and whale sharks - Cocoa out offers some of South Malé Atoll's richest diving. Water ranges 28-31°C, warmest April, May, July.
Cocoa Out in South Malé is a straightforward drift dive, often with a good push. You'll move along a gentle slope, mostly over sandy patches and some scattered coral bommies. Expect to see reef sharks cruising in the blue and the usual reef fish. It's a decent spot for knocking out a second dive if you're looking for something relaxed, but not a standout for macro.
