Resort Description

Hurawalhi Island Resort is located within the stunning Lhaviyani Atoll in the Maldives, offering 90 villas and three restaurants and bars in luxurious surroundings.

The 5.8 Undersea Restaurant  - the largest undersea restaurant in the world - offers fine dining among schools of reef fish while the Champagne Pavilion offers a great setting to watch dolphins and eagle rays swimming in the ocean during sunset.

The two-story fitness center offers gorgeous views of one of the the atoll's channels and nearby sandbank and it's not uncommon to spot dolphins and manta rays in the distance. There's also the Duniye Spa on-site, offering a range of premium beauty and relaxation treatments.

When you’re not diving, eating or relaxing, the games room, sports ground and marine biology center offer entertainment and enjoyment, while photography sessions and diversity of excursions are available too.

Explore diving around the Hurawalhi Island Resort

What to see

Amongst the caves and overhangs you’ll see different species of moray eel, nudibranchs, scorpionfish, and orange, nocturnal soldier fish with big, black eyes. They can be seen swimming upside down in the dark overhangs.

The soft corals are colorful, and some of the hard corals look like a French horn's bell. Expect reef sharks, turtles and rays, but the wet season is more favorable for manta sightings.

As with most of the Maldives – the variety of marine life in Lhaviyani will keep you busy. Add a shipwreck to your experience, and you might need a spare pencil to complete your dive logs.

Dive Center

Highlights

  • Pro Divers voted 'Best Dive Center in the Maldives' in 2018
  • Five instructors who together speak seven languages
  • Boat trips available twice a day, seven days a week
  • House reef, accessible from the island's pier, just a few steps from the dive center
  • Over 60 easily accessible and biodiverse dive sites reached on half-day trips
  • Diversity for divers with caves, drop offs, shipwrecks, mantas, scooter rides and drift dives

Description

Pro Divers Hurawalhi is the third dive center operated by Pro Divers within the Lhaviyani Atoll, offering a safe and intimate experience of the unspoilt local reef systems.

Divers have access to more than 60 nearby dive sites, most of which can be conveniently visited on a half-day trip. You are likely to be the only group at any given dive sites due to the remote character of the local atoll.
