Stay in one of our guesthouses on the local island of
Guraidhoo and dive with us as much as you like for 6 days.
The local island of Guraidhoo, nestled in the South Male
Atoll of the Maldives, is characterized not only by its picturesque beaches,
but also by the authentic culture of its inhabitants. With a population that
lives mainly from fishing and handicrafts, Guraidhoo offers visitors a unique
insight into traditional Maldivian island life.
The underwater world off Guraidhoo is a true paradise for
divers. With crystal clear waters and a rich variety of marine life, the region
offers an impressive backdrop for diving adventures. The coral reefs that adorn
the waters around Guraidhoo are home to a colorful array of fish species,
including stunning tropical fish and majestic sea turtles.
As a certified diver, join our daily guided boat dives with
small groups: Boat Dives usually take place in the morning and in the

At South Male Atoll we have the great advantage to have the
most famous dive spots just outside the center. No dive spot takes longer than
45 minutes, with most of the best ones within 10 minutes reach. For beginners
as well as for the “very experienced ones” – we've got it all. From beautiful
shallow coral gardens, over submerged mountains or steep walls and overhangs -
to our channels with strong currents where you can see sharks.
The most spectacular places of the atoll are Guraidhoo
Corner, Cocoa Corner and Kandooma Thila. Here you find a cleaning station
for sharks, eagle rays, Napoleons and huge turtles on the reef top too. On the
Western outside reefs, you are accompanied by a big school of batfish during
the entire dive. Directly in front of the island of Guraidhoo is our Manta
Point, with Manta rays around from May to October.
