Biyaadhoo
The island of Biyadhoo is oftentimes referred to as a scuba-diving island, and its situation in South Malé Atoll gives access to many famous diving sites in the Maldives. The scuba-diving in the area is famous for sites such as Kandooma Thila, known for its dense schools of fish species, Kandooma Caves, which is famous for its soft corals, and the Protected Marine Area of Guraidhoo Kandu, which is a broad, fast channel. The Nautico Watersports Center runs the scuba-diving on both Villvaru- and Biyadhoo islands. It is close to shore all the way around, with an abundance of coral growth inside its lagoon as well as down the drop-off. Other water sport activities on the island includes snorkeling, windsurfing, catamaran sailing, and canoe paddling.
