DivePoint Rannalhi

Very well-equipped dive center under German-speaking management by Marcus Hauck & Team. His own enthusiasm for diving and the fascinating underwater world of the Maldives made him stay in the Maldives in the 1980s. The base in the South Male Atoll is located on the western outer reef with direct access to the house reef.

Family friendly resort, Divepoint Rannalhi is also the best place to learn diving during your vacation . Beautiful & accessible lagoon for all the training & open water dives !

DIVE SITES RANNALHI

South Male Atoll offers many diving highlights in the immediate area. All of our dive spots are within 45 minutes navigation time. There are daily morning and afternoon boat trips to the most beautiful dive sites. For beginners as well as for the “very experienced ones” – we have the possibility to dive at Thilas, where we are able to do easy dives up to a max. depth of 18m and explore fields of anemones, as far as the eye can see. Or let yourself drift with the current through the numerous channels around Rannalhi to encounter surprises like sharks, turtles, dolphins, eagle rays, different stingrays and in summer we have good chances to see manta rays.

The house reef with a maximum depth of about 22 meters is very spacious, perfect for unguided house reef dives as well as guided early morning and night diving.  

“Now we know why we learned to dive – it is simply fantastic here”.

DIVE SITES OVERVIEW

We have compiled an overview of the 30 dive sites in a pdf document.

Come as a guest, become part of the family 🤿💙🪸
One thing that unites all our divers and us from the very start is our love for the ocean and the amazing underwaterworld awaiting us.
After some warming up minutes and some time to getting used to each other it already feels like knowing each other forever and saying good-bye becomes a really hard thing to do, so there is always a lot of hugging and waving involved - and the one or other tear once in a while.
We always hope that its not a good -bye forever, but more a see ya next time 🥰
Did we already wave you good-bye? Show us your pictures 😎

Lets finish our shark week with a picture of one of our beautiful zebra sharks 😍🫧🪸
Did you know that... 
🦈 ... zebra sharks are usually found on sandy bottoms or close to reefs up tp 60 meters deep?
🦈... their maximum length is about 2,5 meters and that they can live up to 30 years?
🦈 ... they are often confused with leopard sharks due to their dark brown color at birth with white bars across their bodies, but that they become light yellow with small dark spots as they mature?
🦈 ... males reach maturity at around 1,60 meters in length, while the females need to grow slightly larger than that? They are oviparous, meaning they lay eggs, which only hatch after about 6.5 months. 
🦈 ... they are usually quite lazy and prefer resting on the seafloor, but can actually squeeze into narrow crevices to search for food, if they have to.
