Day 1:
Arrival at Kooddoo airport on a domestic flight from Male. 

Days 2-7:
Despite its great dimensions, much of Huvadhoo’s best diving is located along the eastern edge and its various channels. It is also possible to watch the whale shark at night – and most times more than one specimen at a time! Once again our crew will mount the stern lighting hoping for these gentle giants to visit with us for a midnight snack.

Leaving Huvadhoo we get to Fuvahmulah. Dives in this area are most definitely reserved to expert divers. In cooperation with Fuvahmulah Dreams Diving Center you will be
taken to the famous Tiger Zoo to dive with tiger sharks, and other sites in search of threshers, silvertips, and more.

Day 8:
Check out and board a return flight to Male from the airport on Fuvahmulah
