DESCRIPTION

The southern itinerary is synonymous with Maldives at its wildest. The islands we will visit on this trip remain the same as they were at least 50 years ago. Even today the main activity of the inhabitants is fishing. Only here, in the last atolls of the south of the Maldives, can we enjoy the experience of discovering a wild and unique territory.

This cruise is the best choice for those who want to enjoy meeting the great pelagic varieties. The dives mainly take place in the kandu, the channels that form between the islands.

The current that passes between the islands is a source of attraction especially for gray sharks, white tip reef sharks, eagle rays, carangids while along the oceanic reef or inside the passes you can meet green turtles and a vast variety of different corals compared to the central atolls.  

  

In the southern itinerary, in addition to the large pelagics, in the Huvadhoo atoll it will be possible to observe the large whale sharks that approach the stern of the boat at night, attracted by the plankton that accumulates under the light of a special lamp.

It is the itinerary of strong emotions. 

The island of Fuvvamulah surprises us at every dive for the presence of a large variety of pelagics along the only reef that surrounds the island, drift dives that will lead us to encounters with silver tip sharks, hammerhead sharks, tiger sharks , thresher sharks on the luckiest occasions whale shark and sunfish also and if it happens in the right weeks, variable in the month of March, you can dive with the majestic oceanic manta rays.

You can dive at very close range with tiger sharks in the so called Tiger Zoo assisted by local diving, absolutely safe and very exciting!

The itinerary with dives adaptable to the experience and ability of the diver. However, the Advanced license is recommended at least to make the most of the numerous passes.

A transfer with an internal flight is foreseen to reach or leave the boat, coinciding with the international flights.
