Start / Maldives / South Maldives Diving “South Hemisphere Route”

We propose you a diving cruise off the traditional diving routes in the Maldives.

The highlight of south Maldives diving

The route is unique and out of all the usual circuits. The quality of the dives is extraordinary. The amount of life (schools of jacks, schools of sharks and other pelagics, whale shark at night, mantas, tiger shark, mola mola, sailfish …), the quality and exuberance of the reefs, thilas with corals like the Maldives 25 years ago turn the route into the best of Maldives!
