Boat-access Maldives wall dive with coral, overhangs, and sharks.
Boat-access Maldives wall dive with coral, overhangs, and sharks.
Naridhoo Wall is a boat-access Maldives wall dive on the east side of Naridhoo Island, with a steep coral wall, large overhangs, and a blue-water drop that keeps the profile interesting from top reef to base. Divers come for sharks, batfish, tuna, cleaner wrasse, snails, shrimp, and many rays, while the wall itself is the main terrain feature. The site suits divers who are comfortable with current-aware boat diving and tidy buoyancy around overhangs.
