Best for advanced divers, 8-30m, boat entry, strong current.
Madivaru Beyru is an exposed outer reef wall in the Ari Atoll that drops to 30 metres. This technical drift dive is characterised by strong currents that require advanced buoyancy control and current-reading skills. The topography features hard corals in the shallows from 8 metres, with soft corals appearing deeper along the wall. Divers access the site by boat. Visibility typically ranges from 15 to 30 metres, though conditions can shift rapidly with the tide. Due to the strong currents and potential for rapid changes in direction, divers should monitor their position against the reef and maintain close communication with their guide throughout the dive.

Time your dive to arrive at the site as the incoming current begins to build, as this is when manta rays tend to move up along the wall. Brief carefully with your guide on the exit point before descending, as strong lateral currents can push you well past the boat.
