Aqua Dive & Water SportsDive center

On the local island of Naifaru, in Lhaviyani Atoll, Aqua Dive & Water Sports is a PADI 5 Star Dive Center built around reef conservation. It works with the Atoll Marine Centre and its on-site marine biologists, and the courses show it: coral reef restoration, shark conservation, whale shark awareness and its own Sea Turtle Awareness specialty. Weekly clean-up dives and a Dive Against Debris specialty round out the green side.

Training runs from Discover Scuba up to Divemaster. Certified divers go out on shore and boat dives that take in reefs, wrecks, channels and cleaning stations. Non-divers can snorkel, watch dolphins or join seasonal manta trips to Hanifaru Bay. Everything is in English.
