DEEP SOUTH MALDIVES

The DEEP SOUTH MALDIVES route covers 3 atolls: GAAFU ALIFU ATOLL, GNAVIYANI ATOLL, ADDU ATOLL. It is the final destination of the southern Maldives trip. We’ll do this route repeatedly for the most of the southern Maldives trip.

Starting from Male', our southern Maldives trip takes you all the way south down to the last atoll of Maldives in the southern hemisphere. Usually from January to March, when the right water and weather conditon prevail, we are given the opportunity to dive in this amazing far south area of Maldives. During this period of the year, in the south, water pours into the atolls from the out seas, bringing spectacular things, especially the big ones into the channels in the atolls. Manta ray, whale shark, tiger shark and many other species of sharks, It is a feast of marine giants to your eyes which you’ll never forget. 
However, it is because of such challenging water condition, divers are demanded to have high diving experience to participate in the southern Maldeives trip, regardless which route is taken.
