Designed to work as a self-contained budget Maldives experience or as a start to an independent stay in the archipelago, this is a perfect tour for those wishing to seek out whale sharks, marine life, and the world-renowned coral reefs of the Maldives.
The best way to experience this natural beauty and to gain an insight into the culture and tradition of Maldivian life is to travel to an inhabited island. This trip is based on the local island of Dhigurah which lies on the southeast side of Ari Atoll. Dhigurah actually means long island and at 3km, it is indeed the longest island in the atoll. It is also one of the most picturesque with a long beach, protected lagoon, and a sandbar at its southern end.

This Maldivian island-hopping itinerary offers an immersive journey through the local culture and breathtaking marine environment. Kicking off in Hulhumale, you'll quickly settle into island life with easy access to beaches, local cafes, and watersports, with an optional eco-walking tour of Vilimale for early arrivals. The adventure truly begins with a speedboat transfer to Mathiveri, where guided snorkelling introduces you to vibrant house reefs and the impactful work of the Manta Trust. You'll have ample opportunity for further underwater exploration, seeking out diverse fish, turtles, sharks, and even manta rays, all while adhering to responsible snorkelling practices. An afternoon on the stunning, uninhabited Mathiveri Finolhu offers a chance to relax on pristine sands, and evening discussions highlight crucial marine conservation efforts by organisations like Save the Beach.
The journey continues with a transfer to Ukulhas, an island celebrated for its pioneering environmental practices and friendly community. Here, you'll delve into the tradition of Maldivian fishing and engage with locals. A visit to the Olive Ridley Project provides insight into turtle conservation, encouraging you to contribute to their studies by capturing underwater images. Guided house reef snorkelling in Ukulhas promises further turtle encounters. A dedicated free day on Ukulhas allows for a range of activities, from diving and watersports to relaxed sandbank excursions. A highlight for many will be the optional whale shark day trip to South Ari Atoll, offering the chance to snorkel alongside these magnificent creatures, alongside options for serene sunset kayaking or stand-up paddleboarding.
Finally, the itinerary takes you to Rasdhoo, where the underwater adventures continue with exhilarating snorkelling among large schools of reef fish and the renowned black and white-tip reef sharks. Evenings in Rasdhoo are magical, featuring sunset dolphin searches where you can observe these graceful creatures in their natural habitat, learning about their social dynamics and ecological role. The final full day in the Maldives offers a poignant underwater experience at two carefully selected snorkelling sites, aimed at fostering a deep appreciation for the marine environment. The trip concludes with an opportunity to give back through a beach clean-up, followed by a refreshing coconut and an ocean swim. Your Maldivian adventure concludes with an early morning speedboat return to Male and transfer to the airport, with options for late departures to maximise your time
