Maldives
The best condition is a current from east to west: the dive starts on a deeper thila and continues along overhangs with soft corals on top, with a good chance of big fish. In Raa Atoll, the wind of the rainy season, from June to November, tends to bring in large plankton blooms, which attract manta rays. In Raa Atoll you can dive all year; the sea tends to be calmer during the northeast monsoon, from January to May, and rougher during the southwest monsoon, from May to November, a period when there is a better chance of seeing mantas and whale sharks, particularly from August to November.
