Maldives Ocean Adventure from Maafushi
This 8-day trip is based on Maafushi and focuses on the water rather than the resort. It pairs time on a local island with snorkeling, shark encounters, coral reefs, sandbanks and visits to nearby islands such as Guraidhoo and Gulhi. The pace suits travellers who want an active Maldives holiday with room to choose their own activities. Some days are centered on marine life in Kaafu and Vaavu atolls, while others leave time for relaxing on the beach or around the island. Accommodation on Maafushi and breakfast are included, along with digital trip support through the app guide. Flights and other route or activity costs not listed in the inclusions are extra.
