Discover Underwater Coral Reefs

Home to a vast array of coral reefs, the Maldives provides hours of fun exploration for those embarking on snorkelling or diving tours. Those planning to explore these waters should look to stay at a Maldives island resort that organises diving excursions and offers snorkelling as well. Kuramathi Island is one such option worth considering and also features Maldives villas that are ideal for a family holiday or an intimate couples retreat.

Boasting a vast array of coral reefs, the underwater world that surrounds the Maldives is teeming with life including the presence of hundreds of fish species. The corals play an integral part in maintaining the balance of the marine ecosystem here and their various colours and unique formations are truly sights to behold. The marine sanctuaries of Kudu and Okobe are two spots where one can get a good chance to see these corals as is the Girifushi Thila dive site. While exploring these coral reefs you may also get a chance to see such marine life as Sweetlips, Trevally Jacks, Dogtooth Tuna, Parrotfish and a whole host of other species that lend to the charm of this world beneath the waves.
