About This Dive Spot
Faadhoo Kandu is a channel located northeast of Le Meridien Maldives, characterized by potentially strong currents that require careful navigation. The depth of the channel makes it challenging to find shelter from the current, thus crossings should only be attempted during mild conditions. This site is known for its diverse marine life, including sharks, napoleons, jack fish, stingrays, eagle rays, dogtooth tuna, bluefin tuna, bonitos, and trevally, along with notable coral formations.
