One such amazing and magical activity is snorkeling at night. The Velassaru Maldives is a luxury resort which is known for its tranquil accommodation, and offers many exciting things to do in Maldives island.

The Maldives is a world renowned diving and snorkeling destination. This is due to the reason that the waters of Maldives are home to amazing underwater sights and attractions. The Maldives has many splendid coral reefs which are abundant with marine life. These colorful coral in all shapes and sizes, many exotic species of marine life, as well as astounding underwater caves make the diving and snorkeling sites of Maldives magical even during the day. But at night time the experience become even more extraordinary…

The clear tropical waters, glistening with the moonlight, make the mere sight of the waters mesmerizingly beautiful. Snorkeling at night means you must take a flash light with you, so that you can discover the nighttime waters. You will be able to see marvelous coral reefs glistening under the moonlight. You will get to see the many species of fish, and even whales, sleeping in the calm and quiet nighttime waters. There are other species that are only active in the night, so night snorkeling allows you to see these species too .One of the most amazing highlights of night snorkeling is the glimmering and shining biolumiscent plankton and micro life. Glistening under the moonlight, these creatures create an effect of floating glitter underwater, which is a sight that you have to experience.

Night snorkeling in itself is exciting and magical, but night snorkeling in the waters of the Maldives is far more magical. So go ahead and explore the nighttime waters of Maldives.
