About this experience

This full-day snorkeling journey stands out for its carefully curated mix of coral reef exploration, open-water encounters, and relaxed island scenery, offering an experience that goes well beyond a standard Malé outing. You'll be going to Biyadhoo Reef, one of the Maldives’ most reliable coral garden sites, before continuing to Turtle Reef where colorful coral formations and resident sea turtles are commonly found. The day also includes a scenic lagoon cruise where wild dolphins are frequently seen moving alongside the boat, followed by time on a quiet sandbank with a picnic lunch that adds a rare sense of space and seclusion. Designed for both beginners and experienced snorkelers, the experience combines safe water conditions with expert guidance, high-quality snorkeling equipment, underwater photos and videos, refreshments, and eco-conscious practices, delivering exceptional access to diverse marine environments.
