I have booked a flight to Maldives for later this year and I'm trying to figure out where to stay that would offer the best overall diving.
By the sounds of it there are large animals everywhere you go so that isn't a concern. My main concern is finding soft coral in abundance and generally a good healthy reef.
It seems most resort type places have a good amount of fish but are lacking in the healthy reef department... reviews stating bleached and dead coral. Most vacation reviewers on sites like trip advisor seem to be your average snorkeler so it's hard to get any insight on what condition a reef is in when they're only excited to see a turtle or ray.
I've found a few resorts that have good looking house reefs but they are way out of my budget.
Does anyone have any tips for good soft coral diving?
I found this video on the YouTube which is what I'm looking for... Thanks!
