About this center

Liveaboard operator running 7-14 day expeditions through the Maldives' remote southern atolls. Tiger sharks, hammerheads, and untouched reefs.

Maldives Deep South Explorer runs expedition-style liveaboard trips to the Maldives' least-visited atolls. Itineraries spanning 7 to 14 days reach Huvadhoo, Addu, and Fuvahmulah — home to year-round tiger shark encounters and one of the few places where oceanic manta rays, thresher sharks, and hammerheads share the same waters.

Fuvahmulah's tiger shark dives are the trip's centerpiece: descending to a sandy plateau where up to a dozen tiger sharks cruise past at close range. Huvadhoo Atoll's untouched channels offer classic Maldivian drift diving with pristine coral coverage.

The vessel accommodates 16 guests in en-suite cabins with climate control. Three to four dives daily, plus optional night dives. PADI courses available during trips. Nitrox included. Camera room with dedicated rinse tanks, charging stations, and editing workstations. Departures from Male harbor.
