Reef manta ray — southwest Raa
Around Maamunagau and Fenfushi, feeding runs December to April, in the northeast monsoon, with young-of-year present in the same window. The record here is substantial: several thousand sightings of more than 400 identified individuals.
Reef manta ray — eastern Raa
Vandhoo and Kottefaru flip to the southwest monsoon: feeding around September to November, courtship from July. This eastern side holds roughly 72% of the atoll’s pregnant-female sightings.
Turtles — no atoll-level seasonal study exists; treat them as year-round residents rather than a season
Reef sharks — no atoll-level seasonal data
