Amilla Fushi House Reef Dive Felidhu Maldives

Amilla Fushi has an amazing house reef for scuba divers and snorkelers, which includes seeing sharks, turtles and rays. Amilla Fushi is located in Baa Atoll within a few kilometres from Hanufaru Bay, famous for hundreds of manta rays and for whale sharks during the southwest monsoon May to November.

When you search for Maldives Amilafushi House Reef Dive, you probably didn’t realise you cvould dive here from a Maldives liveaboard. Just in case you’ve not considered a liveaboard before, you might want to think about this as an alternative to diving the Maldives.

This is especially true if you have a partner who also dives. It’s also a great way to do more diving than you would ordinarily do if you stay on a Maldives resort like Amilla Fushi Resort and Villas.

For example, if you look below, the Adora Liveaboard dives the Amilla Fushi House Reef as a night dive, but then goes on to dive many other locations on their “Best of the Maldives” itinerary, which includes many dive sites at South Ari Atoll (famous for whale sharks all year round), North Ari Atoll, Vaadhoo Caves and Kadooma Thila (South Male Atoll).
