About Kuni Faru
Kuni Faru is a shallow top reef in the northern Maldives with a gentle slope and rock-led reef structure. Large rock formations, small ledges, and overhangs shelter reef fish, turtles, moray eels, and macro life. It reads as a relaxed boat dive with a deeper finish, so the best days are calm ones with steady water and good visibility.

Local Intel For Kuni Faru
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Best treated as a straightforward reef dive: descend the sloping top reef, stay aware of the overhangs, and finish on the sandy bottom.
Freediving
Not the main use case here; the site is better suited to scuba than to a shallow freedive profile.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is secondary. The site's main interest sits on the slope and deeper reef face rather than a lagoon-style shallows.
