The Maldives offers a diverse array of stunning marine life in one of the most magical underwater adventures imaginable. Snorkel alongside majestic manta rays, gentle whale sharks and through the colourful coral gardens. The magnificent creatures of the world underwater are a highlight for any snorkeler, providing a rare chance to encounter some of the ocean’s most graceful and awe-inspiring beings in their natural environment.Â
Below are some of the top spots and essential tips for an unforgettable snorkelling experience in the Maldives.Â
A manta ray hot spot, Hanifaru Bay, Baa Atoll, is the most popular place to see manta rays. A plankton rich area and a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, large groups of manta ray and schools of tropical fish can be seen swirling gracefully. Encounter them in crystal-clear waters as you snorkel through their natural environment.
Manta Point, South Ari Atoll, aptly named for its frequent encounters with manta ray, is located near a cleaning station where manta rays and eagle rays gather to have parasites removed by cleaner fish. Snorkelling here offers the chance to observe these elegant creatures closely as they glide by.Â
The vibrant coral gardens and deep drop offs are a playground for some of the big players of the ocean. Better for diving, snorkellers can still enjoy the colourful marine life, including large schools of tropical fish, manta rays, and vibrant coral gardens. The calm waters make for excellent conditions for amazing visibility. Experience the world underwater in crystal-clear definition as you snorkel the waters of Fotteyo Kandu, Vaavu Atoll.Â
