FANTASTIC, the snorkeling guide was knowledgeable and safety minded, hotels were better than I could have imagined( all locally staffed, and I felt part of the community), the experience was more than I hoped for, well organized, our guide gave us “university” talks and taught us all day long about fishes, Maldives, mantas , plants, overall we should have received 3 credits for our “Maldives course” ??

We actively support the protection and conservation of the Maldives’ delicate marine and island ecosystems.

We support NGOs like Save the Beach Maldives, Maldives Resilient Reefs, MWSRP, and Olive Ridley Project, focusing on coral rehabilitation and protection of marine life, with donations made on tours where we engage with representatives of the NGO.
Guests receive pre-arrival resources and are guided on responsible snorkeling conduct, local threats, such as the introduction of invasive species (e.g., crown-of-thorns starfish), and how they can help mitigate spread through responsible behavior and awareness.
