Reef manta ray
Feeding peaks with the northeast monsoon — at Fushifaru Kandu around its start, and near Kuredhu, Huravalhi and Komandoo roughly January to March.
Grey reef shark
Fushifaru Kandu holds the largest grey reef shark aggregation documented anywhere in the Maldives.
Eagle & fantail rays
Spotted eagle rays and blotched fantail rays are recorded year-round, and ornate eagle rays show no seasonality at all. There is a blacktip reef shark nursery in the atoll.
Turtles — no atoll-level seasonal study exists; treat them as year-round residents rather than a season
