DivePoint Guraidhoo

Melanie & Meer have joyfully returned to the Maldives, bringing along their beautiful Duniya. Join them at Divepoint Guraidhoo, where they await to reveal to you a side of the Maldives you might not yet know – the most authentic experience, found only on the local islands where time stands still and life remains serene.

Guraidhoo combines Maldivian hospitality, local cuisine and the feeling that time has stood still here, creating a truly authentic travel experience away from the typical resort tourism. Our slogan “Dive with friends” promises outstanding service by an international team, first-class equipment and diving according to the principle of safety first (including CO2 reducer, Nitrox for free, compressor from L&W).

DIVE SITES GURAIDHOO - DIVE WITH MANTAS

At South Male Atoll we have the big advantage to have a lot of highlighted dive spots close to our center. To all diving spots we drive not longer than approx. 45 min. For beginners as well as for the “very experienced once” – we have the possibility to dive at Thilas, or Giris where we are able to do quite comfortably dives up to a max depth of 18-m and explore fields of anemones, as far as the eye reaches.

Or to dive as well to the most spectacular places of the atoll like Guraidhoo Corner, Cocoa Corner and Kandooma Thila. Here you find a cleaning station for sharks, eagle rays, Napoleons and huge turtles on the reef top too. At the West outside reefs you are accompanied by a big school of bat fishes during the whole dive. Directly in front of the island Guraidhoo is the Emmadi Giri, also called Manta Point. Manta rays can be seen there from May to October.

Opening in October 2025

Divers under one roof: Divepoint Residence

Marcus and Jerry have had the idea in their heads for a long time – a place where divers can come together, start their days and spend the evenings reviewing the dives they have experienced together.

Now this dream is finally coming true on the local island of Guraidhoo!

The Divepoint Residence is currently under construction and is expected to officially open in October 2025.

Our Services

GUIDED DIVES

As a certified diver, join our daily guided boat dives with small groups: Boat Dives usually take place in the morning and in the afternoon. In the morning two dives can be done at two different diving spots, and in the afternoon a boat trip with 1 dive. Night dives are available upon request. 

NITROX

 Increase your bottom times and safety margins, plus shorten your surface intervals – so you can spend more time diving and less time waiting! Become an SSI Nitrox Diver through online independent study.

Nitrox is free of charge for all certified Nitrox divers.

CO2 REDUCTION

DivePoint Guraidhoo is the only dive center in the area that use a CO2 reducer which reduces CO2 concentration and significantly improves the air we breathe. Without this reducer, impurities can enter the bottle. This is a problem we see mainly on the local islands.
