About this center

The Maldives' longest-running PADI 5 Star IDC, operating since 1988 at Kuredu Resort in the pristine Lhaviyani Atoll with 35+ years of experience.

Prodivers Kuredu is a PADI 5 Star Instructor Development Centre and the headquarters of Prodivers Maldives, operating at Kuredu Resort & Spa in Lhaviyani Atoll since 1988. With over 35 years of experience, Prodivers is one of the longest-running and most respected dive operations in the Maldives. Lhaviyani Atoll offers exceptional diving with pristine reefs, dramatic overhangs, and thrilling channel dives. The atoll is less visited than the Male atolls, meaning less crowded dive sites and healthier reef systems. Kuredu's house reef is expansive and excellent for both diving and snorkeling. The center operates a fleet of modern dhoni dive boats for daily excursions to the atoll's diverse sites. Manta rays are commonly encountered during both monsoon seasons. Prodivers Kuredu offers the full range of PADI courses through IDC level, with multilingual instructors. The operation has earned numerous awards for its safety standards, environmental practices, and instruction quality.
