Maamigili Beyru
★★★★☆
(1,389)
Dive site right on the corner of Maamigili Island at the southern end of the Ari Atoll, which also has an airport. Outer reef slowly sloping down to approx. 10 m, then more or less steep wall up to over 40 meters with smaller overhangs and crevices. Depending on the current, right or left shoulder along the reef.
Best-known diving spot for whale sharks, lots of schooling fish along the edge of the reef. Be careful when surfacing as there is often heavy boat traffic. SMB highly recommended.
