The best time to visit and dive the Maldives is from December to May, where the ocean conditions are calmest and water temperatures are around 26 to 29 degrees Celsius. Water visibility is best around this time of year.

There are many highlights when it comes to diving the waters of the Maldives. At Ari Atoll, volcano-shaped underwater pinnacles attract huge amounts of marine life, including pelagic fish, manta rays and hammerhead sharks. Maaya Thila offers vibrant reef life, where Donkala Thila is a prolific manta cleaning station only accessible via liveaboard vessels.
