When Maldives Dives Best
Maldives

Renowned for its crystal-clear waters, the Maldives offers some of the best diving experiences on the planet. The best time to explore its underwater world is during the dry season, between December and May. Calm seas, clear skies and underwater visibility of 30 metres and more create ideal conditions for divers, unveiling marine life, coral reefs and dramatic drop-offs in stunning detail.

The atolls of North and South Malé and Ari are best for encounters with manta rays, whale sharks and schools of tropical fish. With its warm waters, gentle currents and abundance of dive sites suited to all levels, the Maldives remains the world’s best destination for unforgettable underwater adventures. padi.com/diving-in/maldives
