A New Years Eve morning trip to Kuda Kandu on the east side of Lhaviyani atoll brought an even bigger end of year surprise than any of a fortunate handful of Komandoo guests could have ever expected…

Almost true to form, the divers were treated to numerous grey reef sharks, several large Napoleon wrasse, plus a formation of white-spotted eagle rays flying slowly by. What appeared next however truly was “out of the blue”…

While pointing out some grey reef sharks, Steve, nearly losing his voice in the process, spotted a much bigger presence looming overhead and quickly recognised that it was a whale shark! Even though our rare visitor seemed in rather a hurry, this brief encounter helped mark a truly memorable end to 2010.

As if that wasn’t enough, the day was capped off perfectly for Rosa and her lucky resort diver when a manta passed by the house reef in the afternoon! From all the Prodivers team on Komandoo, we wish our friends and diving guests a very Happy New Year and many fantastic dives to come. Hope to see you all soon…
