Per day two to three dives are scheduled and night dives, 1-2 a week.The experienced diving instructors will offer all you could wish for from a diving safari. As usually in the Maldives most of the dives will be drift dives. Planning the route and diving schedule will be based on your requests. Dives will generally be with the current and wherever you surface, you will be collected by the dhoni.
There will be also dives requiring a negative entry and fast descent and sometimes, for a short distance, swimming against the current is necessary in order to reach a particularly interesting part of the reef. This is Classic Maldivian diving at it’s best! To participate in a diving safari on the Sheena, each diver is required to show proof of at least 60 logged dives, and if possible, be in possession of an advanced diving license from an internationally recognized diving organization.
Please note: It is compulsory for each diver to wear a computer, to be in possession of a surface marker buoy, an alternate air source and for the night dives per diver one torch as well as a strobe light per buddy team. All equipment needed can be rent at the dive center in Medhufushi.
