Demon Point

Demon Point is an advanced dive site in the Maldives reaching forty meters depth, where a prominent reef corner creates one of the most dynamic and predator-rich diving experiences in the archipelago. The point juts into the current flow, creating the hydrodynamic conditions that concentrate marine life — particularly sharks — at this natural gathering point on the atoll rim. The dive descends to the reef point, where the current creates powerful eddies and upwellings. Positioning in the current's shadow provides a front-row view of the marine traffic flowing past. The depth and exposure create conditions that attract the larger pelagic species that serious shark divers seek. Grey reef sharks gather at the point in numbers that create genuinely exciting encounters. The sharks' hunting behavior at this current-swept location provides a masterclass in marine predation. White-tip reef sharks rest on the deeper ledges, and the occasional silvertip or hammerhead passes through the blue, creating moments of breathless excitement. Eagle rays sweep past with characteristic grace. The reef at the point is beautifully decorated with soft corals and gorgonians thriving in the nutrient-rich current. The overhangs shelter dense fish schools, and the diversity of habitats within the compact site ensures that every moment of the dive offers something compelling. Demon Point lives up to its dramatic name — a site of genuine intensity where the convergence of currents and predators creates advanced diving that represents the most powerful and exciting experiences available in the Maldives.
