  There are estimated to be over 3000 dive sites in the Maldives, which remains one of the world's major diving destinations, renowned as much for the extraordinary natural beauty to its atoll formations as the quality of its diving. Despite the ravages of the 1998 El Nino phenomenon, the Maldives reefs have continued to thrive; where before the focus was on hard corals, now divers of all nationalities come for the myriad fish life and breathtaking array of pelagic species, including manta rays. For this edition all coverage of the existing dive sites has been thoroughly updated, and up-to-date practical information included in the regional directories.
