North Maalhosmadulu

North Maalhosmadulu is a diving area in the Maldives in the Laccadive Sea, with main access through local resort and liveaboard logistics around islands such as Kinolhas and Ungoofaaru. Diving is typically in clear, tropical saltwater with sandy bottoms and coral areas, including channel-like passages where currents can range from light to moving depending on the day. Expect healthy reef topography with hard and soft corals, reef fish, and frequent encounters with larger pelagics when conditions and seasons align. Many trips focus on drift and reef dives from boats, while some operators also offer calmer sites for less-experienced divers.
