We follow certain routes which turned out to be the best in our experience. This route however is not completely fixed, the details depend an weather and currents. Therefore are the cruises, if you come as repeater, never the same. Currents control the choice of the divesite by 100%. At certain currents one spot can be dived, at other currents it is a vaste of time. Sharks, whalesharks, mantas are ecountered at a certain current at the specific divesite only. To know the point is only half the story, to know the right time makes a great dive. We know both in perfection. One week cruises The best choice for a one week cruise is defenitely the Ari Atoll. We find there all you want to see. During the cruise we round all the atoll but have-depending on weather and season, preferences for the west-or the east side. On the way we dive some of the best spots in South or North Male. Usualy we cross second day to Ari. One side of the atoll is always protected. Even in bad weather you find calm waters there. Two week cruises There are two choices: 1.We go down South Male continuing to Waav Atoll (Felidu), crossing to southern Ari, moving up to north Ari and Back to Male. Even at unfavourable weatherconditions a safe cruise since not much crossing between the atolls is required. 2. We move up North Male Atoll, cross to Baa Atoll and continue up into southern Raa Atoll. From there we cross to Lhaviayani Atoll and back south to Male. This route is advised at normal weather-conditions only, since there are open seas to be crossed. Note: If you request as fullcharter a special route or atoll- we can do so, just contact us.
