Kuredu has access to over 45 dive sites, all between 10 minutes and a one hour boat journey away. The sheer variety in the Lhaviyani Atoll is staggering, and is one of the largest in the Maldives. Not only in terms of the fish life, but also with respect to the dive sites themselves.
Dive spots are chosen by our experienced instructor team and reflect the expected conditions, the experience of the divers on the boat and previously visited sites. With ALMOST 50 DIVE SITES to choose from, we try not to repeat any dive spots unless requested, or conditions dictate otherwise.
Boats leave throughout the day, helping to ensure that you can make the most of your time on Kuredu:

Prodivers uses traditional Maldivian 'dhonis' for its dive trips. Dhonis are the main form of transport in this island nation, being used for fishing, excursions, diving and also as delivery trucks!
The design of the Maldivian dhoni has changed very little over the years, with a distinctive tall, curved prow standing upright at the front of the boat. Mainly decorative, the prow also serves to aid navigation when approaching shallow reefs. Modern dhonis often have the prow removed to enable mooring and unloading. The stern of the dhoni is flat and is where the captain stands whilst steering the boat with his foot.
In a slight adaption to the original design, our dhonis are also fitted with a sundeck and a toilet to ensure the journey to and from the dive sites is as comfortable as possible.
