Indian Ocean Escapade. Day 2: Gulhi and Shark Point

We kicked off our day at Seadrop Tours, right after enjoying a delicious breakfast.  They had us covered with all the essentials for snorkeling, from gear to towels!  Before we set off, a brief safety talk prepared us for the exciting journey ahead. Our first stop was Biyadhoo Reef, a vibrant underwater paradise. The water shimmered with crystal clarity, revealing a stunning underwater world filled with vibrant fish and colorful coral just beneath the surface.  The reef burst with vibrant hues—an absolute dream for capturing stunning underwater shots. This destination is sure to impress. The next adventure took us to the stunning Coral Reef.  We encountered sea turtles, manta rays, and various other marine life gracefully gliding through the water.  Witnessing these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat is truly a moment that stays with us forever.  

Indian Ocean Escapade. Day 1: Kuala Lumpur - Malé, Maldives

Our trip to Malé, Maldives, was a mix of excitement and relaxation. From smooth flights to scenic speedboat rides, we had a wonderful time exploring Maafushi Island. This journey gave us peaceful sunsets, tasty meals, and the chance to soak up the beauty of this tropical paradise.  We started our journey early in the morning at Terminal 1, Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL). Our flight was scheduled for 10:20 am with Batik Air, flight number OD 293. The check-in process was smooth, and we were ready for the adventure ahead. The flight took 4 hours and 25 minutes, crossing over the stunning Indian Ocean. We landed at Velana International Airport (MLE), Male, around 1 pm local time. The view from the plane as we approached Male was breathtaking—clear blue waters and tiny islands dotting the ocean.
