Each year from May to November, the Maldives experiences a Southwest Monsoon. Conditions caused by the monsoon create a lunar tide that in turn provides a huge concentration of plankton inside Hanifaru Bay. Naturally, this attracts a huge number of filter feeders so that you might be able to swim with up to 200 manta rays and whale sharks if you’re lucky.

During October, you can find itineraries in all of the three major diving areas. And, occasionally, you’ll find two of them combined into one trip during the 10th month as boats move to reposition themselves for the change of seasons.
Fiji is one of the best places to dive in the South Pacific, and it happens to be a great option for September, especially for lovers of manta rays. For starters, late summer is the perfect time to dive with manta rays in Fiji. The season lasts from June to October, so the earlier the better. Visit Yasawas, Kadavu, the Namena Marine Reserve, Wakaya or Taveuni where 200 to 300 individuals populate the waters. more

In addition, Fiji has some of the best soft corals in the world and hosts an abundance of tropical marine species. You might also be able to dive with a number of sharks around the islands. During the month of September, you’ll enjoy dry but cooler weather during this “high season.” Most of the time, visibility is amazing. Remember that there are approximately 300 islands to dive around in Fiji, so it’s best to book a liveaboard for this South Pacific destination. more
Inward currents and plankton-rich water attract megafauna in high numbers. There’s migrating whale sharks as well as a nightly symphony of manta rays. Sea turtles, stingrays, sharks and colorful fish round out an impressive array of marine life. While diving is great during September in the paradise of Hawaii, you will miss out on the yearly humpback whale migration that takes place from November to March. here

Submitter Comments:
The Coral Princess provides an excellent set of concrete steps for entering, and their dive shop, Pepe Scuba, will leave tanks out for you day or night, which makes this quite an attractive spot, especially for night diving. It is possible to dive all the way out to the reef a football field away, but the current generally renders this plan futile. It's better just to follow the iron shore south or north, staying shallow, admiring the schools of fish and the excellent sponge growth. There are lots of crevices, small bays, a couple swimthroughs to hide lobster, octopus, moray and little things like Christmas tree worms and juvenile angels constantly take center stage. A very worthwhile dive or snorkel. more
