The ultimate diving Maldives expedition! Join an 8-day, all-inclusive Freediving and Scuba Diving Trip in search of the local Ocean Giants. This once-in-a-lifetime experience takes you to some of the best places to dive in the Maldives, where vibrant coral reefs, crystal-clear waters, and incredibly large marine life await.
April is one of the best months for diving in the Maldives, as it's the transition between the dry northeast monsoon and the wetter southwest monsoon. Marine life is abundant amidst tropical weather with climates from 27-32°C (81-90°F) and generally calm waters of 28-30°C (82-86°F) with visibility of 20-30 meters.
Immerse yourself in the beauty of the Maldives scuba scene as you explore breathtaking dive sites guided by our experienced instructors. Whether you're drawn to the peaceful depths of freediving Maldives or the bubbles of a scuba dive, this adventure is designed for ocean lovers of both kinds.
Over the course of eight days, you’ll stay at two modern diving resorts, on two of the region’s most abundant islands. Expect unforgettable encounters with whale sharks, manta rays, nurse sharks, and an array of other marine life. With a small group setting, you’ll enjoy more water time, personalized guidance, and a close-knit community of like-minded adventurers who share your passion for the ocean.
This diving trip is an opportunity to explore, connect, and create unforgettable memories in one of the world's most breathtaking diving destinations.
