The underwater world in Maldives














In Maldives there is two different worlds: the one that you see above and the other that you can see under the water. You can’t leave Maldives without see this second one. From Medhufushi Island Resort it is possible to go to the some fine dive spots in the island for diving and snorkeling. The hotel organizes various snorkeling and scuba diving safaris to the eastern region of the atoll. The channel is covered with coral formation and rich aquatic species. The resorts have professional instructors who know all about the local areas and best unspoiled dive locations, like the the Ravestein wreck is good for diving as the shipwreck resides several fascinating species of fishes and the Ranvila wreck lies at a depth of 35 m housing various colorful aquatic species playing around. Already on my first meeting at the diving-center there was no doubt that I was in the best hands! Every morning I found a great team, motivated, good-humored and enthusiastic on the boat, all the equipment already perfectly installed. In fact the diving team made it possible. I could discover this beautiful underwater world! I had the luck to see and admire turtles, mantas, reef-sharks, a nurse shark, and particularly all those thousands of beautiful designed and colored fishes, as well as these fantastic corals - just like an amazing fairy-tale, incredible.
