Dive-site story
Rasdhoo Beyru traces the exterior reef wall of Rasdhoo Island, plunging into the ocean channel between Rasdhoo Atoll and North Ari Atoll. Divers drift along the vertical coral face to watch the blue for passing pelagics. Early morning drop-offs into open water offer chances to spot schooling scalloped hammerheads ascending from the depths before daylight drives them down.
