Advantages The dive sites are never overcrowded
Disadvantages none
The House Reef is only a few feet from the beach so shore diving is great if you are not to happy with Boat dives. Saying that all the boat dives we went on were no more than 40 minutes away from the Island.
Five Star PADI IDC Diving School - "Jurgen Schaegger's Diving World", was excellent, first class branded equipment for hire. 10-dive package was about $420,with all equipment. You have to pay $10 extra for a boat dive, but that included the staff carrying your tanks onto the boat, so no heavy lugging involved.
The best thing about diving in the Maldives is that the dives are never overcrowded; there were no more than 10 people on any boat dive.
The sea is crystal clear and the Marine life is fantastic, every dive is a new experience. You have to dive with a computer in the Maldives, but personally I would not dive without one anyway. There is a depth limit of 30metres but most of the dives are a max of 20 metres or less.
Great place for novice divers to gain confidence. Well recommended.
