About this dive site
Reef mantas gathering at a famous cleaning station.
Maa Kandu in Addu Atoll draws reef mantas that circle slowly while cleaner wrasse work their gills and mouths. The channel setting adds blue-water drama without leaving the atoll rim. Hold a respectful distance from the station and let your guide set position in the current.
Manta cleaning stations need calm positioning - let your guide set the line and keep a respectful distance. Calendar peak is January - December, but skippers still move sites when wind, swell or current change. Book with a crew that knows Addu Manta Point day to day, not just the map pin.
