The Southern Atolls

Heading further south from the main Vaavu Atoll sites, you’ll find yourself in channels that feel a little less trodden. We're talking about the drift dives around Laamu, Meemu, Thaa, and Vaavu itself, where the currents really bring in the action. Think big stuff: grey reef sharks patrolling the channel edges, inquisitive eagle rays gliding past, and schools of jacks and tuna zipping through the blue. You’ll often find yourself eye-to-eye with a whitetip shark resting in an overhang, or if luck’s on your side, a whale shark cruising by. These are dives for those who enjoy a bit of current and a lot of pelagic encounters.
