One of the big attractions for divers to the Maldives is the abundance of sharks of Maldives, making it a great destination for sharks diving holidays. There are many different varieties of sharks in the Maldives, the majority of which are harmless, which makes for a both spectacular and safe scuba diving experience. There are more than 25 types of sharks Maldives, some of which I have detailed throughout this article and others which are less common. While there is no guarantee for divers that they will encounter a shark while in the Maldives, the abundance of these incredible creatures makes chances quite high and few divers leave the islands disappointed.
