Dive-site story
Located directly off the island of Falhumaafushi in Gaafu Alifu Atoll, this fringing house reef transitions from shallow sand flats into a gradual coral slope and reef wall. Sheltered lagoon areas give way to hard coral formations colonized by table acropora and brain corals, making it accessible directly from the resort jetty for daytime explorations and night dives.
Leopard sharks and whitetip reef sharks resting on sandy ledges along the reef base
Green sea turtles grazing on seagrass and soft corals near the drop-off
Night diving opportunities featuring hunting moray eels, lionfish, and sleeping parrotfish
