TRIP OVERVIEW
Diving with Shark Expedition Fuvahmulah is an unparalleled experience, offering encounters with some of the ocean’s most iconic pelagic species. The island’s position, isolated in the open Indian Ocean, creates a nutrient-rich environment that attracts an extraordinary variety of marine life. Divers can expect year-round encounters with tiger sharks, which are the island's primary draw, often seen in shallow waters near the reef edge.
In the blue, thresher sharks, silky sharks, and occasional hammerhead sharks glide gracefully, while oceanic mantas and massive tuna add to the spectacle. Seasonal visitors like whale sharks and mola mola (sunfish) further enhance the underwater excitement. The coral reefs also support vibrant ecosystems with smaller species like triggerfish, fusiliers, and butterflyfish, creating dynamic contrasts to the giants of the deep.
The diving here is best suited for experienced divers due to strong currents and the depth of many sites. Shark Expedition Fuvahmulah provides expert guidance and prioritizes safety, ensuring every dive is both thrilling and meticulously managed. For those seeking close encounters with apex predators and vibrant marine biodiversity, this destination is unmatched.
