Advice for diving Miyaru Kandu in Maldives

Miyaru Kandu is a fascinating channel dive - which is next to Alimatha Resort, another famous site. As usual, the dive plan will depend on whether the channel is outgoing or incoming.

There are very few boats operating in the Northern Maldives and usually ...
