Flying through the kandus of Ari

The Maldives are one of the best places in the world for drift diving. The strong currents created by the oceanic passes provide effortless propulsion along the reefs. The secret lays in the monsoons' activity, a sort of giant climatic engine that creates the endless currents that ceaselessly sweep the atolls of this island nation.

When you are drift diving you are essentially hitching a ride on the currents, it does not matter whether you will be riding through a ”kandu” - a pass created between two atoll reefs - or a going around a ”thila” - a shoal inside the atoll - you will be gliding along the reef-wall looking at it as you effortlessly pass by. At the end of the dive the divemaster will send a float to the surface to signal the diving dhony to come and recover the group.

In such a situation a good buoyancy is paramount, it is what allows you to fly through the water with nothing on your mind but the myriads of fascinating life forms that inhabit the reef nooks and crannies.
