When you hire your boat with a skipper in Maafushi, you'll sail through the Indian Ocean on a private boat for your group.
Description
You can choose between two options for your booking, both including hotel pickup, private boat hire with a skipper, snorkelling equipment, and lunch.
Vaavu Atoll boat trip
Pickup from your hotel in Maafushi is at 9 am, followed by a trip to the harbour. The boat will sail through the waters until reaching Vaavu Atoll, where snorkelling equipment will be provided to explore the area and swim with nurse sharks, jacks, and dolphins. The atoll features a 34-mile long reef. Enjoy drinks and a barbecue lunch during the 6 hours 30 minutes cruise.
South Ari boat trip
Pickup from your hotel in Maafushi happens at the scheduled time before heading to the harbour. This trip goes to South Ari Atoll, which contains 105 islands. You will snorkel for giant whale sharks and may also see manta rays and dolphins. A barbecue lunch will be served during the excursion.
Vaavu Atoll + Shipwreck boat trip
After pickup from your hotel in Maafushi, we'll go to the port to start the trip. The first stop is the Shipwreck, where you can snorkel around the remains of Victory in Malé Atoll. Then we will visit Vaavu Atoll for snorkelling with nurse sharks and dolphins and a visit to a sandbank for relaxation. After lunch, we will conclude the six-and-a-half-hour tour by returning to the starting point.
