The Diving

The Far North offers rarely-dived, untouched reefs before the boat reaches Baa Atoll during its peak manta and whale shark season — one of the world's most concentrated aggregations, inside a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. A dedicated 29-meter dive dhoni carries all gear and equipment separately, so the main yacht stays completely quiet and dry.

Small, capped dive groups mean uncrowded sites and real room to actually shoot what you're seeing.
