A ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME JOURNEY
Since we were only three German divers, we were perfectly positioned in the German team together with Ichelle, who led the tour. The destinations were chosen in such a way that we could observe sharks or manta rays in more than half of the dives. Since there were mostly currents in the channel dives, we were instructed in the behavior beforehand, which was important for me, as I had no experience with drift diving before.The highlight was the night dive on the last evening, where plankton were attracted by light from the boat and lights on the bottom, which was a feast for a group of manta rays. An unforgettable experience.A barbecue evening on the beach and three birthdays with cake rounded off the experience.The food was varied and adapted for Europeans in spiciness.

- With Ichelle I surprisingly had a German-speaking, very helpful guide. The dive destinations were perfectly chosen. The food was great.

Between Tiger sharkes and the smalltest of Coral Inhabitants, souther Maledives has everything you could ask for.
This was my first trip to the Maledives. I enjoyed seeing Tresher/Nurse/Tiger Sharkes for the first time in my live. The unstopping Wall of Sharkes will also be unforgettable for me. My personal favourite will be identifying "spotted coral croucher" , which were very shy and belong to the familiy of scorpion fishes. I want to give a big Thank you to Ichelle our guide for her outstanding patient combing the hunt for sharkes and giving me the freedom to still explore coral habitates as well.

My trip to Male and to the Maldives was a "lifetime experience"!
Seeing the whale sharks, and the manta rays! Those were the two reasons that I booked the trip. The city tour to Male was a "bonus" - something that gave me a good cultural experience, and a way to see how other people in the world actually live.

- 1. The diving was phenomenal! 2. The crew, service, and food was great! 3. The new friendships that I made with all of the other divers on the trip. We have all exchanged emails.
