When to go diving in the Maldives

Wondering when is the best time to go diving in the Maldives? Whether you’re a first-timer or an experienced diver, you’ll want to pick a time of year when conditions are ideal.

For the best diving conditions in the Maldives, plan to visit between November and May. During this period, the waters are at their clearest, and visibility is superb. On top of that, the average water temperature is around 27-29 degrees Celsius, making it a very pleasant experience for divers.

Visibility for diving in the Maldives may be limited between June and October due to the monsoon season’s increased rainfall. Stormy weather conditions and choppy water can make these months less ideal for diving.

Planning to go diving in the Maldives? It’s important to consider the timing if you’re hoping to spot specific marine life. For instance, manta rays swim in the Maldives from December until April, while whale sharks are typically seen in the area from March until May. If you have your eye on a particular species of sea creature, it’s worth checking out when they migrate and arranging your trip accordingly.
