The centre is equipped to support various diving needs, offering Nitrox for divers looking to extend their bottom time. This is a significant asset for those planning multi-dive days or deeper excursions.

The waters around the South Malé Atoll are home to a diverse array of marine life. You can expect to encounter various species of sharks and turtles navigating the reef systems. Dolphins are also frequently seen in the surrounding waters.

Seasonality plays a role in certain encounters, particularly with manta rays, which are notably present in September. The coral gardens provide a vibrant backdrop for these sightings, hosting a wide variety of reef fish.

The local biodiversity is supported by healthy coral structures that provide habitat for a multitude of species. This ecosystem creates a constant sense of movement and colour throughout the dive.
