About Hurawali Kandu

Hurawali Kandu is a boat-access channel dive in the north of Lhaviyani Atoll, built around a tongue-shaped reef with plateau sections, slopes, walls, and drop-offs. It suits advanced or expert divers who want a current-sensitive Maldives channel rather than a calm reef cruise, with large stingrays, eagle rays, tuna, jackfish, and occasional sharks the main draw.
