Felidhoo — Vaavu (Felidhoo) Atoll, Maldives
The atoll capital with a dive scene that punches well above its tourist count. The Felidhoo channel pushes pelagics past the reef wall — grey reef sharks, eagle rays, and the occasional hammerhead — while the beach stays deserted.
Why Felidhoo?
- Felidhoo channel dives
- Nurse sharks & rays at sunset
- Quiet village
- Bodu beru drumming
