We travel 45 minutes by speedboat to a sandbank, ideal for picnics or for merely enjoying time sunbathing, snorkeling or swimming in the clear blue lagoon.
Following a Responsible Snorkeling briefing we snorkel at the sandbank and will take in one further snorkel point upon leaving the sandbank. Both points are filled with marine life and coral. Sites are selected on the day dependent on weather and ocean conditions but you can be assured of encountering a colourful array of marine life.
We finish the afternoon cruising the ocean in search of dolphins as the sun begins to set.

This is a MUST DO TRIP OF A LIFETIME!
Everything from the wonderful tour guide and his deep knowledge of marine life and conservation, to the 5 star food and out of this world snorkelling experiences.
If you have a choice between booking with this wonderful company or any other in the Maldives, please don't hesitate to choose Secret Paradise. They delivered the holiday of our dreams.

Excursion in the Maldives
Published on Nov, 2024
A private speed boat with Ub and his crew. Enjoyed 3 different diving sites. Saw several different types of fish, string rays, dolphins, & a shark in open waters.
Stopped off on Himmafushi for photos ops and a quick bite to eat. Afterwards went to a sandbank for more photo opportunities!
Ub handled all cameras and assisted with amazing shots!
Cruising back to the port had fresh watermelon and a beautiful sunset.
