The Maldives is fast becoming the ‘go-to’ destination for divers travelling beyond the Red Sea.
The Maldives has been attracting divers to its waters for decades, and it’s easy to see why: reefs rich in marine life, home to large numbers of whalesharks, dolphins and several species of sharks and regular interactions with manta rays. The Maldives also offers divers some of the best drift diving in the world.
Leading tour operator Regaldive has recently noticed a surge in enquiries for Maldives liveaboards. They attribute this to a number of factors, including an increase in the number of liveaboards operating in the region, the variety of exciting itineraries, the great value of Maldives holidays and the choice of airlines flying to this iconic diving destination.
