The Best Time of Year to Dive in Fuvahmulah and Why

 O9a0732 Bearbeitet

Fuvahmulah offers incredible dives year-round, although there are some times that are better than others:

Dry Season (May to November)
The seas are calm, the weather is clear, and visibility is optimal during this time, so this is the ideal time for diving. Divers have uninterrupted encounters with the marine life, such as tiger sharks and other pelagic species.

Rainy Season (June to October)
While the season sees occasional heavy rainfall, it also attracts strange sea creatures. The plankton-rich waters during these months increase the chances of whale sharks and oceanic manta rays being spotted.

Best Time for Specific Marine Life:

  • Tiger Sharks: Spotted year-round.
  • Oceanic Manta Rays: Most commonly seen from June to October.
  • Whale Sharks: More frequent during the wet season.
  • Thresher Sharks: Seasonal sightings, with the highest chance during the dry season.

Whenever you visit, Fuvahmulah’s amazing sea life guarantees an unforgettable diving experience. Book your trip with Fuvahmulah Central Dive Center to get the most from your trip.
