Meyyafushi Beyru is an outer reef and wall dive in the Baa Atoll, Maldives, featuring a reef top that descends to 25 metres. The topography includes a wall structure with swim-throughs that require confident buoyancy and navigation. Divers can expect moderate currents, with visibility ranging from 15 to 40 metres. Water temperatures remain consistent between 28C and 30C throughout the year. The site is suitable for intermediate divers, and boat access is required. Hazards include sharp coral, potential overhead environments within swim-throughs, and currents that can strengthen quickly. Divers should remain close to the wall for shelter and monitor conditions closely before entry.
