Fesdu Wreck,Maldives

• The wreck structure itself — an accessible, reef-encrusted wreck providing interesting swim-throughs and photographic subjects
• Rich reef life — schools of reef fish, often small predators, many macro creatures on and around the wreck
• Pelagic sightings — occasional reef sharks, rays and larger schooling fish depending on season and currents
• Clear water and good visibility typical in the dry season, making it excellent for underwater photography

• Coral and sponge encrustation turning metal into a living reef
• Photogenic topography — contrasting wreck contours with blue water backdrops
• Suitable for a range of divers — accessible to intermediate divers with guided dives

• Scuba diving (guided dives arranged by local operators or liveaboards)
• Snorkelling (from boats; visibility may allow viewing of the wreck from the surface in good conditions)
• Underwater photography — macro and wide-angle opportunities
• Marine-life watching — focusing on reef fish, occasional rays and sharks

Dry season (roughly November–April) for the clearest water and most stable diving conditions; pelagic sightings vary by atoll and season

Tropical maritime climate: warm year-round (highs ~28–32°C), wetter and windier during the southwest monsoon (May–October) which can reduce visibility and increase sea state

No specific public entry fee for the wreck — access is normally included in dive trips or liveaboard itineraries; timings depend on dive-operator schedules (usually morning and afternoon dives). If the wreck lies within a protected area, operators will note permit or landing restrictions.

Reachable by speedboat or liveaboard from Malé (Velana International Airport, MLE) or nearby resort islands. Most visitors join a resort day-trip or a liveaboard that includes the site on its itinerary.

Divers: a half-day to full-day trip for 1–3 dives; Liveaboard visitors: include it as part of a 3–7 day itinerary to sample several top sites in the atoll.

Bring: reef-safe sunscreen, a light waterproof jacket for boat transfers, casual tropical clothing, and for diving a 3mm wetsuit (adjust according to personal cold tolerance), plus your own mask/snorkel/boots if preferred.

Try: Maldivian specialties such as mas huni and fish curries on islands or resorts. Souvenirs: lacquer boxes and trays, coir (coconut-fibre) products, local handicrafts and shell-based items (buy from licensed shops to ensure sustainable collection).
