About this dive site

This dive site, Coral Ridge, is conveniently located about 25 minutes from Rahaa Resort in the Maldives. It serves as an excellent location for refresh dives and check-out dives, allowing divers to comfortably reacquaint themselves with the underwater world. The navigation is straightforward, primarily following the vibrant coral reef structures that define the site. Divers can expect to encounter a diverse array of marine life including turtles, rays, and schools of parrotfish, fusilier fish, and snappers. The coral reef itself is a highlight, boasting abundant and varied coral formations, from massive corals to delicate branching corals and swaying sea fans. The best time to visit Coral Ridge is generally during the dry season in the Maldives for optimal conditions. Its shallow average depth of 8 meters and maximum depth of 17 meters makes it particularly suitable for beginner divers and also offers fantastic opportunities for freedivers and snorkelers to enjoy the vibrant reef.
