Route Description - Central & Southern Atolls
Available for:
11 Days 10 Nights
Central & Southern Atolls itineraries are not suitable for entry-level divers, or those who are not comfortable or used to diving in currents.
The following is an example of the day-to-day itinerary.
Day 1: Meet the crew at the airport for embarkation, which is followed by introductions,
boat and safety briefings and dinner. There is no diving on embarkation day.
Days 2-9: The crew typically offer up to 3 dives a day on full diving days, scheduled as follows
unless travelling distances or other circumstances dictate otherwise:
Light Breakfast followed by a briefing and Dive 1
Full Breakfast, relaxation period, briefing and Dive 2
Lunch, relaxation period, briefing and Dive 3*
Snack, relaxation period
Dinner
If the crew can offer a sunset or night dive, the diving schedule will be slightly amended.
PLEASE NOTE: Night dives are not possible in the southern atolls due to strong currents and
depths in many of the locations. In the Central Atolls, a sunset or night dive might be
offered but, the possibility of either is NOT guaranteed.
Day 10: For the last day of diving divers usually schedule two dives* before lunch, after which the boat commences its cruise to the disembarkation port.
The number of dives offered the day before disembarkation is dependent on flight departure times to ensure a minimum of 24 hours between the final dive and flying.
Disembarkation day: Early breakfast on board followed by disembarkation at 07:30 and transfer to the airport which takes approximately 30 minutes
