There are estimated to be over 3,000 dive sites in the Maldives, which remains one of the world's major diving destinations, renowned as much for the extraordinary natural beauty of 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 awe-inspiring manta rays.For this new edition, all coverage of the existing dive sites has been thoroughly updated, and the latest practical information is included in the regional directories.
