Sharks draw attention in Maldives’ diving tourism MALDIVES - JANUARY 29: A view of a nurse shark, usually found around reefs and sandy areas, is known for its calm nature in the Maldives, on January 29, 2026. They often rest motionless on the seabed during the day and feed on small fish and invertebrates at night, making them a safe and popular species for diving tourism. Tiger sharks, rarer but striking, are recognized by their large size, strong build, and distinctive stripes. Typically found in deeper, open waters, they sometimes approach dive sites, offering unforgettable encounters for underwater observers. Tahsin Ceylan Anadolu Maldives Maldives. Editorial use only.
