Dive into the beautiful underwater realm that gives you endless opportunities to lay your eyes on the 5-star coral reef metropolis, buzzing with marine life. Novice snorkellers can admire the colourful marine life from the flat surface of the Indian Ocean, be it on the well protected and easily accessible house reef or by joining one of Prodivers’ several snorkelling excursions. Divers will know that the South Ari Atoll is home to the Maldives’ best diving and Lily Beach offers an excellent jumping-off point for trying to find everything that’s on your Maldives bucket list.

The attentive Prodivers team will be pleased to show you around their stunning office and regardless of whether you have thousands of dives under your belt or you are a beginner, you will immediately realize that what lies on your doorstep at Lily Beach will be difficult to surpass anywhere in the world.

SNORKELING ADVENTURES

Nothing beats spending a day out on the ocean, exploring some of the prettiest reefs in the Maldives. Fish come in thousands, in a kaleidoscop of colours. Baby sharks and turtles patrol the lagoon, and the soft corals swing in the currents. Snorkelling is the easiest way to catch a glimpse of what’s hiding underwater. 

BEGIN DIVING 

The conditions at Lily Beach are perfect for beginners! Prodivers offers a number of options that let you get your hair wet and experience what it is like to breathe underwater for the very first time. It may feel overwhelming at first, but if the chance of coming face to face with a clown fish or a turtle isn’t convincing enough, then a possible manta ray or whale shark sighting maybe is. 

AMAZING DIVE SITES

South Ari Atoll is home to some of the most famous dive spots across the Maldives. Colourful coral formations, a huge variety of fish life, wrecks and seasonal sightings of manta rays and whale sharks have made it one of the world’s top diving destinations. With more than 50 dive sites within easy reach, and new ones being discovered, it is easy to understand why so many people coming back for more.
