About your trip

Join us on an unforgettable trip aboard a traditional Maldivian dhoni boat, exploring the crystal-clear waters and vibrant coral reefs of the Maldives. This intimate cruising experience is designed for small groups, allowing you to connect with fellow travelers while diving into the stunning underwater world of the Indian Ocean. Over seven days, you'll visit some of the most sought-after snorkeling sites- swimming with sea turtles, rays, and an array of tropical fish. Keep an eye out for dolphins, whale sharks, and manta rays, while taking in the beauty of deserted islands, turquoise lagoons, and the serene Maldivian sunset. Whether you're a seasoned snorkeler or a beginner, our expert guides will ensure a safe, enjoyable experience of 2 guided snorkels per day, along with sandbar and island visits. This is the perfect trip for those looking for a blend of adventure, relaxation, and natural beauty in one of the world’s most extraordinary marine environments.

Who is this trip for?

This trip is perfect for those looking to explore stunning reefs and enjoy daily snorkeling. It’s ideal for snorkelers of all levels, but you should be comfortable swimming in the open ocean. 


You’ll need to transfer from the main boat to a dinghy to access snorkeling sites. As well as be confident climbing a small boat ladder back onto the dinghy. The crew is always there to help anyone who needs some extra assistance. 


Cabins do have bunk beds, so please let us know in advance if you require a lower bunk, and we will try our best to accommodate you.

 

Open to anyone 18+, with no age limit—whether you’re 21 or 70, everyone is welcome to join the fun!

All genders are welcome.

Exloring the Maldives

Each day's itinerary will be decided by the crew based on the sea conditions. But you can expect 2 guided snorkels per day, a sandbar or beach visit, and plenty of time to relax on the boat watching the sunset or jumping off the boat into the sea.


As this is an ocean safari, we will try to spot as much wildlife as we can, hoping to see dolphins, nurse sharks, turtles, rays, and all kinds of fish. While whale sharks and manta rays are a little more elusive, we will try our best to spot them! 


Each trip is unique and while we can't guarantee any wildlife sightings, the Maldives is teeming with vibrant sealife and the reefs are bustling! 


Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
