Dive-site story
Located off the southern shoreline of Kuredu Island in Lhaviyani Atoll, this accessible reef features a sloping coral wall, sandy flats, and a sunken fishing vessel. Resident green sea turtles graze constantly across the seagrass beds near the shallows, while the deeper wooden wreck has transformed into an artificial haven for schooling glassfish and moray eels. Divers can drift comfortably along the reef wall before ascending to the sheltered shallows near the exit point.
Sunken wooden fishing trawler covered in hard and soft corals
Dense resident population of green sea turtles feeding in shallow seagrass beds
