About Madi Miyaru Kanmathi

Madi Miyaru Kanmathi is a shallow-to-deep reef slope off Hulhumalé that is built for shark encounters rather than clear-water scenery. The reef drops from the top edge into sand, so the dive stays easy to read even when visibility is poor and the reef line is the main reference. It is a boat dive for divers comfortable with SMB ascents, heavy boat traffic, and close-range wildlife.
