Maldives 2025
10 Day Liveaboard April 20-30 2025
A liveaboard is the best way to see the Maldives. Because they are an archipelago with 1,200 islands. Only aprox 200 are inhabited. The liveaboard is a way to travel at night and see the best parts that you couldn’t if attached to a resort with a distance limit. The trip will include atolls, coral reefs and coral islands all world famous for their first-class scuba diving and snorkeling.
This is a bucket list destination that many consider the best waters left in the world. The best time to visit the Maldives for scuba diving are between the months of February - April, when the weather is dry and warm, and visibility is best and the wildlife is at its best. During April Trips we are most likely to see Hammerhead, white tip, and Leopard sharks. Whale sharks, Manta, and Eagle rays. Hawksbill and Loggerhead turtles. And Dolphins are a common siting in April as well.
Some of the best Atolls to dive, the Ari Atoll is home to many of the best dive sites in the Maldives. Maaya Thila, for example, located on the southern end of the atoll, consistently ranks as one of the best sites in the area. The pinnacle starts about 20 feet deep and stretches down to 100 feet, and the area is home to marine life such as barracuda, stingrays and more. Those diving after sundown will likely get to experience a reef shark feeding frenzy.
Male Atoll is divided into two sections: the North Male Atoll and the South Male Atoll. The North Male Atoll is one of the most visited dive areas in the country, while the South Male Atoll tends to be slightly less trafficked.
On the South Male Atoll you'll find Cocoa Thila, a pinnacle that stretches over 1,000 feet long and offers a wide variety of marine life.
Vaavu Atoll offers excellent channel diving for divers of all levels. One of the most notable sites in the atoll is Fotteyo Kandu, a channel with a number of large overhangs and caves (often referred to as one of the best dive sites in the world).
