Raa Atoll is one of the northernmost resort atolls of the Maldives. Here we offer daily boat dives, with one tank or two tank possibilities. The pristine reefs of Raa Atoll are still in a great condition. We were the only diving island in this atoll for many years and now there are still very few. Meaning you get to enjoy these dive sites for yourselves and just with your close diving buddies. Very nice soft corals, huge schools of fish and manta rays can be seen here all year round.
We have the advantage of being able to drive through our island location in the middle of the atoll to the east and west side of the reef, so we can watch manta rays almost all year round. Let yourself be inspired by this pristine underwater world.
Our international dive team live and dive by our slogan “Dive with Friends”. Here you can expect a relaxed and familiar atmosphere with top service as well as relaxing dives, guided by our motivated and competent team. Our dive staff are 100% passionate about diving!

‼️‼️URGENT UPDATE🦈
The Maldives has announced it will allow gulper shark fishing
from November 2025.
Gulper sharks are endangered, slow to recover and vital to ocean health. Their loss could destabilise marine ecosystems crucia to Maldivian fisheries and food security. The Maldives is one of only seventeen shark sanctuaries in the world and will lose it internationally recognised status, gained when all shark fishing was banned in 2010 and trade in 2011.

"My name is Andy, and I’m the base manager here on the stunning island of Meedhupparu—a paradise that feels as if it was carved from a dream.
Born in landlocked Stuttgart, Germany, I first discovered diving during a trip to the Maldives at age 20. That first plunge into the turquoise depths lit a fire in me that never went out.
Life delayed my dream until years later, when I finally became a diver during a family holiday in Egypt. Since then, diving has become my lifeblood—more than 9,000 dives later, my passion for the ocean (and especially for sharks!) only grows stronger.
