Spectacular Dive Sites

admin — Wed, 15 Jun 2011 08:24:42 +0000

Guraidhoo Kandu, is definitely one of the most spectacular dive sites in the Maldives and such is the extensiveness of the site, it is often split into two and visited twice. Many say that the marine life at Guraidhoo Kandu is unrivalled: here you will spot squirrelfish, moray eels, eagle rays and grey reef sharks. Like many of the best dive sites in South Maldives, Guraidhoo Kandu displays a wide variety of colourful coral formations and interesting topography. Kuda Giri is one of the best wreck dive sites in the Maldives and is a good spot to see napoleon wrasse, feisty triggerfish and some batfish. The actual wreck is only small and has only been there for around 10 years, but that seems to have been long enough for some interesting and attractive corals to grow. Sightings of turtles and reef sharks are not uncommon here.

Most of a zebra sharks prey is caught at night, since the shark is a nocturnal creature. A zebra sharks diet consists mainly of small fish and crustaceans.

Diving Whale Shark

admin — Mon, 28 Feb 2011 16:52:18 +0000

Since whale shark reproduction has not been studied for long and while significant progress has been made in studying the whale shark mother and father, little is known about the young of the whale shark, so it is almost impossible to estimate baby whale shark weight, although a baby whale shark was found in the Philippines in 2009 measuring only 15 inches, which was possibly the smallest whale shark on record. What is the outer covering of a whale shark? Liveaboard cruises show the outer skin of the whale shark is smooth to touch and can be around 3 inches thick. It is important never to touch a diving whale shark, as their skins are sensitive and touching could lead to infections.
