A key attraction of the Maldives is its thriving and abundant marine life, and the best way to really take it in is by a session or several sessions of snorkelling. The best thing about this activity is that it's doable in almost all resorts including the likes of Amilla Maldives Resort and Residences. If you are lucky, you will be able to simply jump in from your water bungalow or villa and get right to it. While you can snorkel everywhere in the archipelago if you are keen on taking in specific types of marine life, you might have to take a boat to specific locations and pay for the excursion. In terms of visibility, the Maldives has some of the clearest waters on earth, with water temperatures rarely ranging from 20 to 30 Celsius. Apart from vibrant coral plates, you will also get to see colourful reef fish of all sizes and hues along with larger fish like napoleons or moray eels, along with various species of sea turtles such as Hawksbill turtles. If you are feeling a bit adventurous, night snorkelling is also a possibility.
