Snorkelling In Maldives

The archipelago of Maldives, which is situated in the Laccadive Sea, consists of over one thousand islands. The islands are quite unusual in that they are completely made up of coral. It is believed that the islands were formed when volcanoes in the region were overgrown with coral.

While snorkelling one will come across giant turtles, clownfish, butterflyfish, oriental sweetlip, parrotfish, angelfish and maybe even a shark or two. Although one will definitely come across an eclectic collection of fish, sightings of whale sharks and manta rays are not all that common in shallow waters.
