The seas around the Maldives unfold an exotic realm of marine life. Untold species of possibly all colors, shapes, and sizes can be found right from the tepid waters of the ocean surface to the cold, dark abyss hundreds of kilometers below.

The diving destination Maldives is particularly renown for its large inhabitants like whales, whale sharks, manta rays or sharks that visit the area. Reef associated animals like turtles, groupers, moray eels or reef sharks can be frequently encountered during a snorkel or dive cruise in the Maldives.

Hanifaru reef in Baa atoll Maldives is famous and well known as a breeding and feeding ground for manta rays and whale sharks. Best time of the year to spot whale sharks and manta rays is from May to October.
