About this dive site

This dive site is known as Sirru Faru Hulhangu, an easy drift dive located approximately 15 minutes boat ride west of Sirru Fen Fushi Private Resort in the Maldives. As a typical faru (reef), it offers a gentle descent along a vibrant reef system. The reef crest begins at about 5 meters and gradually slopes down to depths exceeding 30 meters, though the maximum recommended depth for this analysis is 15 meters. Divers can expect to follow the reef wall, exploring various overhangs adorned with soft corals. The marine life at Sirru Faru Hulhangu is diverse and captivating. Divers can encounter fascinating small creatures such as ghost pipefish, often nestled among the vibrant soft corals. Larger inhabitants include marble stingrays gliding across the reef, and blacktip reef sharks patrolling the deeper sections. The reef is also home to an abundance of other beautiful reef fish, contributing to a bustling underwater ecosystem. The Maldives generally offers excellent diving conditions year-round, with specific highlights depending on the season, though specific seasonal animal sightings for this site aren't provided. This site's 'easy drift dive' characteristic makes it suitable for divers of all levels, including beginners. Its shallow top at 5 meters also makes it highly suitable for snorkeling and freediving, allowing non-scuba divers to enjoy the vibrant reef and marine life, especially the stunning coral gardens and smaller fish near the surface.
