Boulder Spot is a reef dive located in the Laamu Atoll, Maldives, offering a straightforward experience for beginner divers. The site reaches a maximum depth of 19 metres, allowing newer divers to remain in shallower sections. Access is by boat, and the site typically features a moderate current, which can result in a gentle drift along the reef. Because conditions can vary and currents may strengthen, divers should maintain close contact with their guide and use a surface marker buoy due to local boat traffic.
