Fantastic Day of Snorkeling - Highly Recommend

5.00What a fantastic day! We snorkeled two different areas seeing reef sharks, octopus, turtles, more fish than can name, and starfish. Our guide, Kamey, was very informative and made everyone, even the less experienced snorkelers, very comfortable in the water. We snorkeled about 1.25 hours at the first stop and enjoyed a leasurely walk with watermelon at the sand bar prior to snorkeling for about another hour. We ended the day watching dolphins play as the sun set.
Great

5.00A private speed boat with Ub and his crew. Enjoyed 3 different diving sites. Saw several different types of fish, string rays, dolphins, & a shark in open waters. Stopped off on Himmafushi for photos ops and a quick bite to eat. Afterwards went to a sandbank for more photo opportunities! Ub handled all cameras and assisted with amazing shots! Cruising back to the port had fresh watermelon and a beautiful sunset.
