The faru offers encounters with a range of marine species documented across 12 species observations, giving divers solid insight into what they might see on a dive.

As with all Maldives diving, responsible practice protects both the reef and future diving opportunities. Check current conditions and coral status before booking, and dive with operators familiar with local conditions.
