DAY 1


Arrive anytime to the pristine waters of Maldives, a paradise that houses 26 breathtaking atolls. Purchase a ferry ticket for 1USD at the airport entrance then, hop on a 10-minute ferry ride from the airport island of Hulhulé to the Capital City of Malé. Our stay for the day (Zan Lodge, Malé) is a 10-minute walk from the Malé Ferry Terminal. With the city’s main attractions within walking distance, feel free to put on your solo explorer hat or tag along with our guide for a day of discovery, culminating in a beautiful sunset and dinner.

DAY 2


Our day begins at 7:30 AM with a short walk to Malé Fish Market, where you’ll witness fishermen expertly gutting and filleting massive Yellowfin and Skipjack Tuna from their morning catch in record time. At 9.00AM, we check out from our accommodation and set off on a scenic 3-4 hour local ferry ride*. Admire the diverse island landscapes and charming structures as we make several stops before reaching our destination. Arriving at the enchanting island of Fulidhoo, with its powdery sands and crystal-clear waters nestled in the Vaavu Atoll, we’ll spend the rest of the day snorkelling around the vibrant house reef before ending the travel day with yet another breathtaking sunset.

Free & Easy: from the late afternoon till night.

DAY 3


Day 3 is the real deal! Charge up your underwater cameras as we journey further south of the atoll to visit the Vaavu Shipwreck. This speculated Indonesian vessel now sits as a makeshift half-submerged underwater haven teeming with vibrant marine life and colorful corals, perfect for snorkeling and freediving. After an exciting morning, we’ll pause for lunch on the nearby island of Thinadhoo before heading out to sea again, in search of the elusive Manta Ray. As the day winds down, we’ll return to Fulidhoo for an evening of beach lazing, jetty jumps and watching the skies paint dusk.

Free & Easy: from the late afternoon till night.

DAY 4


Day 4’s excursion is a race against time as we set out to encounter nurse sharks in their natural habitat before the day’s feeding sessions begin. While feeding marine life is a common cultural practice in the Maldives, we are committed to minimizing our impact and do not participate in these sessions. Rest assured, you’ll receive a comprehensive briefing on how to interact respectfully with these gentle sea pups. The day continues with visits to two spectacular snorkeling spots: Turtle Point and Coral Garden. Our final destination is the breathtaking sandbank, a true oasis amidst the ocean. After a day full of wonders, we return to Fulidhoo, where you can enjoy a leisurely evening at your own pace.

Free & Easy: from the late afternoon till night.

DAY 5


Feel free to make the most of our last day on Fulidhoo with a sunrise snorkel or enjoy a quiet slow morning with some local breakfast before we bid our farewell and catch the 1:30PM speedboat back to Malé – OR – catch the early speedboat back at 6.30AM if you have an earlier flight. If you have some time to kill, consider exploring Hulhumalé, a reclaimed island located in the south of North Malé Atoll before making our way back to the airport**

** Airport transfers are at each participant’s own arrangement. Refer to the date info section above.

Do I have time to sign up for dives in Fulidhoo?

Yes! You can arrange your own dives or excursions with any island operators during our free and easy hours (between the late afternoon till night time on Day 2 to 4).
