Fuvahmulah is a single isolated island in formed in the middle of the ocean. Unlike other such islands in the Maldives, Fuvahmulah does not have a great reef around it. Regardless, it has been observed that ocean life gathers around in this area seasonally. Whales and multiple types of sharks are reported to be found in the outer sea of this island. Some parties say that large sea creatures, such as sharks, visit some parts of reef to clean themselves.They claim that Farikede area is one of the spots where different types of sharks visit to clean themselves. The types of sharks they mention as being most likely to be seen here are Blue Sharks? (Andhun miyaru) and Zebra Sharks (Faana miyaru). A type of Reef Manta Ray (En’madi) which is rarely seen in the Maldives, is also found seasonally in great numbers. These rays usually live in the outer oceans. They visit the reefs in order to catch food or clean themselves. Thus, this area can be considered essential for their survival.Whale Sharks (fehurihi) also visit this spot seasonally. Researchers that study whale sharks in the Maldives report that adult female whale sharks are commonly spotted in this area. They report that this is not something observed in other parts of the Maldives. These researchers say the likely reason for female sharks visiting this area in such numbers is because they breed here. Whale shark researchers say that shallow areas such as this in the ocean are often visited by whale sharks for breeding.The small fish that clean the larger species in this area are at a serious risk if the corals are destroyed. Additionally, the creatures that visit this area to clean themselves are also in danger. As this area is important for these marine lives, any harm done to it will be an obstacle for the survival of these creatures. Therefore, in order to protect these wild lives, it is crucial to adopt sustainable ways and preserve this area.
