Day 1:
Upon arrival in GAN, transfer to Princess Sara.

Day 2-7:
In Fuvahmulah atoll it is possible to dive with the big tigers that rise from the deep waters almost to the surface. On the outer plateau, schools of hammerheads, grey sharks, thresher and silky sharks live. It is not difficult for them to be accompanied by an encounter with great whale sharks. These are moderately demanding dives and suitable for those who are fond of big fish.

The Addu atoll also offers special encounters among which the oceanic manta rays that live there in all seasons stand out. Here, too, it is possible to meet tiger, grey, white tip and silky sharks.

The currents coming from the ocean bring a large amount of nutrients, attracting many shoal fish, tuna, jacks, barracudas, but also fusiliers, snappers and butterfly fish. Thanks to the presence of these palatable prey, large predators such as sharks and giant groupers also come. Sometimes, with a little luck, you can also meet sailfish. Groups of dolphins swim and play around the dhoni and the boat, rarer (unfortunately) is to meet them underwater!

Suvadiva (Huvadhoo) has intact reefs with corals that completely cover the seabed, creating gardens of incredible beauty that can be appreciated both in scuba diving and only with fins and mask. The currents are often quite strong in these areas, and the water has carved out caves where corals, fish and invertebrates live. The amount of sharks is truly incredible as is the reef fish. Excellent for deep sea fishing (sailfish, wahoo, tuna, barracuda and lampughe) and bottom fishing (snapper, grouper etc).

Day 8:
Disembarkation in the morning and transfer to the airport.
