Foah Malé

This dive site, Foah Malé, is an advanced open ocean dive where divers will spend significant time in the blue water, potentially starting from a reef. Given its location and depth profile, precise navigation and deep diving experience are crucial. There is no specific history or story provided beyond its nature as a deep pelagic encounter site. The site is renowned for its exceptional megafauna encounters, including Tiger Sharks, Bull Sharks, Spinner Sharks, Lemon Sharks, Guitarfish, Giant Hammerheads, and Grey Reef Sharks. While not explicitly mentioned, pelagic fish and some reef species near the starting reef are also likely present, but the focus is clearly on the large predators. The best time to visit Foah Malé would be during seasons known for good shark encounters in the Maldives, though specific months are not provided. For divers, DSMB deployment is mandatory due to high boat traffic and potential currents. Advanced certification and deep diving experience are essential. Freedivers with appropriate training and experience could also enjoy the megafauna, but should be aware of depths and boat traffic.
