About this dive site
This dive site, Neru Faru - Hilton Maldives Amingiri Housereef, is a vibrant hard coral reef situated directly in front of the Hilton Maldives Amingiri resort. It caters to divers of all experience levels, offering depths from a shallow 2 meters down to 25 meters. Located within a channel, the dive's character is significantly influenced by the prevailing current direction and strength, potentially offering exhilarating drift dives. There is no specific historical background provided for this relatively new resort housereef.
The reef boasts an abundance of marine life, including countless colorful reef fishes and dense clouds of glass fishes. Divers should also keep an eye out for interesting macro subjects such as the well-camouflaged leaf fish and the potentially venomous stone fish, which blend seamlessly with their surroundings on the hard coral structures.
The best time to visit the Maldives for diving is generally from November to May when the weather is calm and visibility is excellent. Divers and freedivers exploring Neru Faru should be mindful of the variable currents in the channel, which can change character rapidly. Always follow your dive guide's instructions, especially regarding current, to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
