Best Time of the Year to Dive in Maldives

January to April: Generally considered the best months for diving, with fine weather and good visibility.

May and June: Can have unstable weather – storms and cloudy days are common until September.

October and November: Tend to have calmer, clearer weather, but visibility can be slightly reduced because of abundant plankton in the water. Some divers like this period because many large fish, such as whale sharks and mantas, come into the channels to feed on the plankton.

December: Can have rough, windy weather and rain.
