[#Maldives] Trip Report : FEB.15 -22, 2020,  Deep South #Equatorial Route 2 from #Gaafu to #Addu Vol.3

Day 3 of the special trip number 2, we were actually in deep South, left the Gaafu atoll in the midnight and reached at #Fuvahmulah island in the Southern Hemisphere. It was clear sky with no wind neither wave. Our dhoni moved forward gliding over the surface. As we crossed over the Equator, we expected some boat laboring but actually it was fine! We saw the Southern Cross clearly. We had three dives at Fuvahmulah. It was nice but there were some patches of clouds. The visibility was nice that we could see the bottom. Immediately after our descent of the 1st dive, a Pelagic Thresher appeared! Then, Hammerhead after Hammerhead! And ended up seeing a Tiger Shark! Wow! What a great start of the day! Unfortunately we could not see that much for the 2nd dive. The 3rd dive was good as a Manta Ray, followed by a group of Grey Reef Sharks, showed up! The next was a Tiger Shark!  The big Tiger Shark had its followers of about 20 of Grey Reef Sharks! The water temperature was 26-31 deg.C. The water temperature was 26-28 deg.C. The visibility was 20-40 meters. To be continued…
