Ory Faru

★★★★★ (2,377)

Ory Faru is a great dive site situated right in front of Kuramathi island. This is an easy wall dive and perfectly suitable for all levels of divers. The reef starts at about 4 meters and drops down below 40 meters depth.

While on top and inside the wall and reef you can spot octopus, lobsters, maldivian clown fish, moray eels and sometimes turtles, keep an eye in the blue for eagle rays and sharks.
