No trip to the Maldives is complete without exploring its fascinating underwater world that is full of life and colour. While snorkelling and diving are great ways in which to see these underwater sights, for a truly unique and unforgettable experience take a ride on the Whale Submarine. Those in search of Maldives island resorts from which to base themselves at can consider Adaaran Hudhuranfushi. Featuring elegant Maldives villas it also offers a variety of excursions which let you explore the country and its natural beauty both above and below water.
The Whale Submarine is in fact the world’s biggest passenger submarine and provides a comfortable journey underwater to depths of around 120 feet. The descent begins with an initial dive reaching 25 metres where passengers can see colourful corals and such species as yellow box fish, snappers and common lionfish. The dive continues with the Whale Submarine heading to 40 metres below the surface where one has a chance to view more exotic creatures of the deep and with any luck you will see white tip reef sharks, groupers and napoleons. While dives take place during the day, those conducted at night give you a chance to see a whole other side of the ocean.
