Ari Atoll : à la rencontre des requins-renards et baleines
L'atoll d'Ari concentre les rencontres pélagiques les plus régulières des Maldives — requins-renards, requins-baleines et raies manta sur un seul itinéraire.
Asia’s waters hold some of the most extraordinary diving on Earth. From the remote archipelagos of West Papua to the limestone karsts of southern Thailand, every dive is an invitation to descend into a world that operates on its own rhythm — slower, quieter, infinitely richer than the one above.
What you’ll see beneath the surface
Schooling barracudas, gliding mantas, vibrant soft corals in every imaginable hue. The Coral Triangle alone contains 76% of the world’s coral species and more than 3,000 species of reef fish — biodiversity unmatched anywhere on the planet.
Practical tips for your trip
- Arrive at least 24 hours before your first dive to acclimatise.
- Carry comprehensive dive insurance (DAN is the gold standard).
- Pack a reef-safe SPF and a foldable surface marker buoy.
- Respect no-touch protocols — your bubbles are enough impact.
