Utheemu Reef

This site is situated close to Dhidhdhoo Island and a naturally formed sandbank. Suitable for most divers. The dive starts on the top reef at a depth of 10 to 12 meters, sloping to 25 to 30 meters at the base.

Starting on a beautiful top reef at just 5 meters deep, progressing to a drop off and wall that reaches depths of 30 meters. Along the reef wall there are some large overhangs, where it is possible to see sleeping sting rays or turtles, lion fish, moray eels and lobsters.

Between the two islands Mafaahi and Muraido, near the canal to the port of Muraido, two long ridges can be found. Depth varies between 15m and 22m.

Depending on the current, either we dive the wall or the caves from the same spot. Suitable for most levels. The top reef sits at around 6 metres, sloping to a wall that drops to around 30. Most of the dive is spent under the large overhangs where the main wall and ceilings are covered by yellow, soft corals.

Starting on the shallow top reef at around 5 meters, sloping down to over 20 metres, we explore the reef and in the right conditions, out into the center of the channel to explore a small coral covered thila. Either way, this site offers lots of opportunities to explore many interesting coral and rock formations.

A beautiful channel location, with a very shallow top reef, sloping to sand at 18-25m, covered with hard and soft corals, abundant with marine life, often with a slight to medium current.

A beautiful wall dive, covered with corals at all levels, the dive begins on the top reef at a depth of 10 to 12 meters, following the wall down to a slope at around 18 meters, before dropping further to around 30 metres, where we can explore some large sequential overhangs and caverns at the base.

This can be a very easy dive in normal conditions, but also quite challenging in the case of strong currents. The reef starts in shallow waters and goes slowly down to 20 and to 30m in some areas. A large ’aquarium’ section is the highlight of this dive, along with small canyons and large overhangs full of soft corals.

A shallow house reef of Hondaafushi Island, starting at around 5 metres, sloping to beyond 18-20 metres in places. Some large boulders teeming with life on the top reef and slope with some small cave type overhangs, often hiding rays, whitetips and large groups of lobsters.

Located on the east side of Hondaafushi Island. Suitable for all levels of divers. The dive takes place on a sandy plateau, among many coral blocks and the acropora and table coral families, before sloping down to a sandy bottom at around 15-20m.
