Maelly Fure

Sometimes taking the road less traveled leads to the greatest discoveries, as 27-year-old Maelly “Miley” Faure can attest. Raised on the islands of Corsica and Réunion, Maelly has always been deeply connected to the ocean. Now living and working as a professional underwater videographer, photographer, and social media content creator, her passion for the sea shapes every aspect of her life. A PADI ambassador, Maelly’s journey into diving was inspired by her mother, a recreational diver, and has become a central part of her identity.

Having lived in Thailand before moving back to Europe, Maelly says, “Leaving France to pursue my dream of becoming a diver was the best decision of my life. It has transformed my mental health and given me a purpose beyond anything I could have imagined.”

Specializing in underwater content creation and product photography, Maelly collaborates with dive brands, swimwear companies, and touristic dive locations. Alongside her manager and travel companion, Tomas, who helps plan and film various projects, Maelly continues to pursue her mission: to share her love for the ocean and inspire others to explore its wonders.
