Shore entry Measured

~275 m across the lagoon to the drop-off — a genuine swim, not a wade.

Living cover Measured

About 60% of the mapped reef reads as living coral or algae from satellite.

Heat history Measured

Peak heat stress 5.25 DHW since the imagery, 1 bleaching-alert year on record (2016).

From satellite this reef reads Excellent — roughly 60% living cover. We have not surveyed it in the water, so fish counts and big-encounter ratings stay pending. We don't estimate them.

Documented in South Aricited

Whale shark

Present year-round — the single most widely mis-stated fact about Maldivian wildlife. The South Ari protected area works as a resting and development ground for juvenile sharks rather than a stop on a migration, so the population persists instead of arriving and leaving. The record runs to over 6,000 sightings of nearly 400 identified individuals across two decades.

Reef manta ray

A northeast-monsoon animal on this side of the atoll — the mirror image of Baa. Rangali Madivaru, on the western flank, sees mantas from about December to April, with courtship and pregnant females concentrated between January and April.

Not established here honest

Turtles — no atoll-level seasonal study exists; treat them as year-round residents rather than a season

Reef sharks — no atoll-level seasonal data
