Between May and August, the mantas come in from the deep water and hover over the coral blocks while the small cleaning fishes do their work. When you have had enough of watching the Mantas, continue the dive and find oriental sweet lips and napoleon wrasses, turtles, and various types of moray eels. Sometimes even the very rare golden moray.

Meal: Break Fast, lunch, and dinner

Day 4: Scuba Diving Hogura Hura

An easy dive with no current.

This is a place for macro photography. Hogura Hura is a beautiful, relaxing dive site without currents for all levels of divers.

The reef is covered mainly with hard corals, ascidians, algae, and soft corals. Plenty of colorful nudibranchs and flatworms, many different moray eels are found here as well as a dense lionfish population, stone fishes, and many rare crustaceans and hidden juveniles. Sometimes you can even find a ghost pipe fish.

Day 5: Scuba Diving Kandooma Thila

A difficult dive with a strong current.

The teardrop-shaped, 300 m-long Thila, is one of the most exciting dive sites in the Maldives and has fantastic scenery with lots of beautiful soft and hard corals and incredibly rich fish life. The reef top starts at 16m (at the eastside 20m) which makes a quick descent necessary as there are usually very strong currents.

There are grey reef and white tip sharks, barracudas, huge tunas, big eye trevally and big groups of eagle rays, some sleeping nurse sharks under the coral blocks on top of the reef as well as all common smaller kinds of reef fish to see.

Not to forget: many big green turtles can be seen on the reef top or hiding under the overhangs. But – depending on the current – it is a tough dive only for experienced divers.
