Itinerary
Male International Airport Male International Airport
Depart London
Start Malé International Airport; board the Felicity; cruise through the South Malé Atoll
Following a short introductory briefing, we transfer by dhoni (a traditional boat) to board the MV Felicity by midday, our home for the next six days, arriving in time for a light lunch. Today we cruise south to Guraidhoo in the South Malé Atoll. During this time, you can do as you please: relax on the sundeck, sit in the shade of the sun canopy and watch the beautiful Maldives pass and maybe catch sight of dolphins. Our crew will try to find an opportunity for you to have your first snorkelling excursion this afternoon. If the islands of the Maldives are beautiful, what lies under the water is a veritable wonder of nature. The reefs that encircle the islands and atolls are just as abundant in their variety of coral as the marine creatures that live in and around them. This, coupled with the amazingly clear water, make snorkelling here an experience you never forget.

Arrive Male; board our boat, the Felicity; cruise through South Male Atoll
Following the arrival of the group flight and a short introductory briefing, we will transfer by dhoni to board by midday the MV Felicity, our home for the next 6 days, arriving in time for a light lunch. Today we cruise south to Guraidhoo in South Male Atoll. During this time you are able to do as you please, relax on the sundeck, sit in the shade of the sun canopy and watch the beauty of the Maldives pass you by and maybe catch sight of dolphins. Our crew will try to find an opportunity for you to have your first snorkelling excursion this afternoon.

This coupled with the amazingly clear water, make snorkelling and diving in the Maldives a unique experience that you will not forget.
MV Felicity
Turtle snorkelling safari in South Malé Atoll; cross into Ari Atoll
This morning, our first stop is a reef on the east side of the atoll, which offers the strong possibility of several turtle sightings. The reef is shallow but dense with corals that provide turtles with an abundant food source. As with all Maldivian reefs, there is also plenty of fish to observe including box fish, porcupine fish and schools of banner fish. For the remainder of the day, we cross into the Ari Atoll and head south towards the island of Dhangethi. Dependent on the sailing conditions and time, we may have the opportunity this afternoon for a further snorkel trip before visiting Dhangethi, where we have a traditional Maldivian afternoon tea. Dhangethi is a typical Maldivian fishing island with an interesting story concerning the moon and a Maldives sultan!
Accommodation: MV Felicity
Full-day whale shark safari with the Maldives Whale Shark Research Programme
Today a representative from the Maldives Whale Shark Research Project Team or a local marine biologist, will share their knowledge about these magnificent creatures and how identification is made. Once we set out on our dhoni safari adventure, it is a test of patience as we scan the surface of the ocean for the sign of a whale shark shadow, as we slowly cruise within the 45km area of South Ari Marine Protected Area (SAMPA). We may see one or two whale sharks in 30 minutes; alternatively, given that they are wild creatures in their natural habitat, we may not encounter one for the whole time we are searching. However, the unpredictability adds to the excitement and, if we do spot them, we can snorkel alongside them, a truly magical experience. Whale sharks can, at times, swim very quickly – so you may need to work hard to keep up.
Accommodation: MV Felicity
Morning whale shark safari; afternoon snorkelling in South Ari Atoll
Today we go in search of whale sharks once more; if the time of year is right (December to March), we may also encounter manta rays. Following lunch, we are taken to one of the best snorkelling sites in this area where we may be fortunate to encounter turtles among the colourful corals and fish. The water conditions and currents play an important role in the choice of snorkel sites. However, we will likely see fish species such as dogtooth tuna, trevallies, jacks, sweetlips, butterfly fish, wahoo and fusiliers. When not in the water, the day is one for relaxation on the MV Felicity.
Accommodation: MV Felicity
Morning manta ray snorkelling (in season); afternoon cruise back into South Malé Atoll
On departures between February and April, we cruise to Madivaru, a protected marine area with two cleaning stations where we hope to encounter manta rays. With a radio network between dive and cruising vessels, our guide and crew do their best to encounter manta rays; should we not be lucky enough, further snorkelling opportunities to encounter sharks, turtles, eels, octopus and rays will be offered. Out of season, it is still possible to encounter solitary manta rays and we also make the most of a final opportunity to encounter whale sharks.
Additionally, qualified divers may be offered the optional opportunity to dive within this protected marine area, which has several exciting dive sites (see money section for prices of the optional diving). For those who have not dived before, a Discover Scuba Diving course is offered to learn the basic safety guidelines and skills needed to dive under the direct supervision of a Padi professional. Those who choose not to dive can snorkel instead.
This afternoon, we start our cruise northwards.
Accommodation: MV Felicity
Cruise back to Malé
Cruise north before we anchor in the lagoon off the island of Hulhumalé in the late afternoon. This morning, there is a final chance to snorkel these tropical waters and, while cruising, we can do as we please: relax on the sundeck, sit in the shade of the sun canopy or just watch the beauty of the Maldives pass. Once anchored in Hulhumalé lagoon, there is an optional walking tour of Malé for those who wish to stretch their legs! This evening, a presentation provides an overview of the Maldives marine environment and the work undertaken by local NGOs to protect it for the future.
Accommodation: MV Felicity
Disembark boat and transfer to Malé International Airport; end of trip
After a light breakfast, the group is transferred this morning back to Malé International Airport, where we begin our return journeys home.
Disembark boat and transfer to the airport; fly to London
After a light breakfast, all clients are transferred this morning back to Male International Airport in time for the group flight clients to check in for their flight back to the UK.
S/Y Felicity
Sail the Indian Ocean in a traditionally crafted Turkish gullet, built in Bodrum and housed in the Maldives. The Felicity is our home for the adventure, with six cabins that comfortably accommodate 12 passengers.
During downtime, relax on the teak sun deck, which is furnished with sun mats and banquette seating, while gazing over the incredible archipelago. The indoor saloon has a dining table and seating and is fitted with an entertainment system and an equipment-charging area.
We sleep in air-conditioned cabins with attached bathrooms that have showers, small wardrobes, drawers and storage facilities, portholes and a wall fan.
Worth knowing
- The Felicity has six cabins with a mix of twin and double rooms; we therefore strongly recommend booking early to guarantee availability of the correct room type.
- If you are a very light sleeper, we recommend earplugs as it is necessary to have one generator operating at night.
- A single supplement is available but there is very limited availability.
- There’s a ‘no shoe’ policy on board.

Reviews
Add your own reviewIncredible trip, wildlife and people
Absolutely loved this trip – scenery and wildlife was incredible and Zaff and the crew went all out to make it one of the best weeks of our lives
Most Inspirational Moment
Swimming with three whale sharks in 30 mins, the manta rays at the cleaning station - but in general the underwater life is fantastic
Thoughts on Group Leader
Zaff was great, he lifts up those around him. At the beginning he told us he would try and give us the best week of our lives which was a great start! He's a charismatic and open guy who taught us a lot about the Maldives outsude of the honeymoon resort experience. I felt we got a much more authentic experience - visiting local islands, hearing about life there. We watched documentaries and also had speakers from NGOs. In the water he is a graceful swimmer who makes everyone feel safe. He worked hard alongside the other excellent members of the crew to make sure we saw as much as possible but not at the expense of the welfare of the animals or the reefs. Big shout out as well to our other snorkeling / diving companions Shafi and Hussein!
Advice for Potential Travellers
Just do it! The boat is not a 5 star resort but the guys kept the boat clean and changed bins in the bathroom twice a day, and made up the rooms morning and evening. The Sri Lankan chef and waiter worked very hard - nothing was too much trouble - and I loved the exciting array of dishes we got at every meal. You definitely need a rash vest if you are Caucasian plus a factor 50 sunblock or you will burn.
Great manta experiences
A very enjoyable week on the Felicity in the Maldives snorkelling, diving, island visits, a couple of very interesting talks and a fun evening of entertainment.
Most Inspirational Moment
Diving and snorkelling with mantas, up very close and playful.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Zaff was very enthusiastic and tried very hard to make it a great trip for everyone.
Advice for Potential Travellers
We spent 3 lengthy sessions in our dhoni over 2 days searching for whale sharks and found none. There are alot of boats looking for manta and whale sharks and at times sightings are a scrum. If you are a diver, it is worth taking the opportunity to dive. The coral isn't what it used to be but there are lots of fish varieties, hawksbill turtles, sharks. Getting up so close to the mantas for so long was very special. You don't need to bring any equipment, it is all supplied. If you do pack your own don't bother bringing short fins, they are not suitable. If you want mobile coverage during the week buy a pre-paid sim at the airport. If you don't do that the captain will provide wifi on the last day so you can do the Maldives exit form and checkin online. I am not a great sailor but the sea conditions were not too uncomfortable, the worst times are the channel crossings at the beginning and end of the trip. The transfer to the Felicity on arrival day is at 12pmish. If you arrive earlier, you will be taken to a waiting area whist the group gathers and the boat is got ready. I had to hunt for a fair while to find Zaff and the Exodus sign at arrivals so keep looking.
Crew of the Felicity were brilliant.
Lovely way to explore the Maldives though I felt the chances of seeing let alone swimming with Whale Sharks was exaggerated
Most Inspirational Moment
Swimming with Manta Rays
Thoughts on Group Leader
Saf is a fun person to be around. He has boundless energy.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Be prepared for hours of whale shark hunting on the Dhoni
A lovely week onboard a boat in the Maldives
MV Felicity is a comfortable old Turkish Gulet. The trip had lots of snorkeling in clear warm water. The reefs have lots of colourful fish, and you get a chance to see the Manta Rays, Reef Sharks, Turtles and if you are lucky the Whale Sharks. The food was amazing, plentiful and the staff were great. Very helpful and friendly. Being a small group, it was the perfect way to spend time both relaxing and visiting small islands. Lots of space on the boat for either sunning yourself or like us keeping out of the sun, which is very strong.
Most Inspirational Moment
Snorkeling with the gentle Manta Rays, who seemed to want to interact with us.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Despite having a tooth infection, which was obviously painful, Zak remained professional, friendly and helpful and ensured the trip went smoothly. Explaining each days activity, and especially about respecting the wildlife and whale sharks. We had good encounters that were mainly just our boat and us.
Advice for Potential Travellers
The cabins are comfortable. There is storage under the beds. Very little in the way of hanging and drawers but then you dont need many clothes. You live in swim suits and shorts. Hanging space to dry stuff on the deck. There are some very early starts to avoid the crowds. Seeing the reefs and colourful fish are a given. We saw lots of Manta, reef sharks and a few turtles. Dont expect to see lots of whale sharks. We only saw 1, and that was brief, on the whole trip. There is a lot of chaos around the whale shark area when all the day boats are about. Exodus ensure we stay out of harms way if its very busy. You will not get in the water if there are lots of people in the water. This could mean missing the whale shark, but we would prefer that to either harassing the whale shark, or getting hurt in the mass of people and boats. Take ear plugs if you are a light sleeper as the aircon and fans needed to keep the rooms cool are noisy.
Wildlife
This trip was amazing, and our group was so lucky and i felt privileged to see so many wonderful , amazing animals on this trip, Manta Rays, Feather Sting Rays, Turtles, Spinner Dolphines, Whale Shark, black tip sharks, Nurse Sharks and flying fish – AMAZING. I would like to highlight the need for a UV Protect shirt – not just a rash vest. There will be plankton that will sting when swimming in areas with Manta rays / Whale Sharks. i felt like i overpacked for this trip, you will need a change of swimming costumes but no need to take that many clothes for the evening. Sea shoes for sharp shell beaches are beneficial, and flip flops but no need for other shoes.
Most Inspirational Moment
All wildlife - out of this world - amazing .
Thoughts on Group Leader
Engaging and supportive
Advice for Potential Travellers
UV top, and maybe a long sleeve if available. Sports camera for underwater filming a must. take your sea legs with you, as the crossing can be a little rocky at times - channel crossing even lost the support dinghy for a short time until recovered by the snorkel boat. You will need to complete a traveller declaration - Maldives immigration on departure from UK & Maldives - save a screen shot with QR Code for customs.
Awesome and amazing
I actually did this trip 4 years ago, but it was even better this time. We had excellent viewings of whale sharks and manta rays over 2 days focused on finding these. Our final snorkel on the last day as with stingrays and that was a whole new experience for me. In addition the reef snorkels were also beautiful with a stunning variety of fish and a few turtles. The experience on board was lovely, with plentiful food.
I also did a trial dive that took me down to the manta rays – something I never thought I would do.
Most Inspirational Moment
There were many, but I will choose one. Just 4 of us had gone for an extra whale shark search, and one was spotted. I jumped in ahead of it, and it came right towards me. It swam slowly under me and it was so clear in the beautiful blue water. I felt like it was just the 2 of us in the water. I followed it for a while until it dived.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Zav was brilliant. He was funny and entertaining. Not all of the group were confident in all environments and he looked after them and ensured that they got the best experience possible.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Bring several swimming costumes and ensure you have something like swim shorts as well as a rash vest/ other top as the top of your legs are as likely to burn as back and shoulders. I learned this many years ago.
An amazing boat trip in the Maldives
An amazing tour during which we were lucky enough to snorkel with turtles, dozens of spinner dolphins, huge manta rays, a whale shark on two days, eagle and sting rays, moray eels, reef sharks and of course a wide variety of numerous reef fish large and small.
We were all keen snorkelers and were able to snorkel at least twice a day.
The boat was roomy and comfortable to spend time on during the day as were the cabins at night. The latter had both air conditioning and a fan to keep things cool. The crew were welcoming and helpful.
The food was tasty and plentiful, the group were all keen snorkellers who got on well together.
Most Inspirational Moment
Snorkelling with five manta rays which were feeding in the water beneath us, flying/swimming gracefully in formation, spiralling and going round in small circles near the sea bed. We were able to easily keep up with them for about half an hour. An enormous manta ray joined the loose group for a while before disappearing into the plankton haze. Visibility was surprisingly good, given the plankton, and we able to duck dive a few metres to get clearer photos. Swimming above and briefly alongside a whale shark with only our group present in the water on our second encounter with it, was also magical. We were lucky to see several whale sharks at night pass very close by at the surface by the stern illuminated by a powerful light used to attract small fish eaten by the whale sharks.
Thoughts on Group Leader
UB (Ubai) was personable, had an easy and infectious laugh and who “got” the English sense of humour, looked after all members of the group very well, and quietly and efficiently ensured that everyone was happy and that everything ran smoothly and without drama.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Practise snorkelling and duck diving, go on a course if you can, it will pay dividends when it comes to getting closer to the wildlife underwater. Although snorkelling gear is available on the boat, take your own mask (and fins ) to ensure a comfortable fit. Take a camera suitable for underwater photography and practise with it before you go. A rash vest, preferably but not essentially a thermal one (see on Amazon), is really useful for up-to one hour plus snorkelling sessions. Take along some luck with you to help you find plenty of all the creatures you want to see.
You can be single and do the Maldives without feeling like the odd one out!
From day one you are part of the Felicity family. From being welcomed on board and shown your surprisingly comfy cabin, to the last breakfast on board, you are looked after and made to feel so welcome, you will not want to leave.
Captain Shafy, Guide Kamey And all the crew work tirelessly to get you the best wildlife experiences. Their knowledge of the Maldives and all its creatures is endless and no doubt why you get to see, and experience, so much.
Most Inspirational Moment
Swimming for an hour and 10 minutes with Fernando the 8 metre long Whale Shark has to be the most inspirational part of my trip. Scuba diving after a 20 year break from it felt daunting until Captain Shafy took charge. His patience, confidence and expertise was inspiring. This too was an experience I’ll cherish.
Thoughts on Group Leader
The group leader Kamey has very good English and navigates you through you Maldives experience with his laid back charm. Laid back, but hard working! On snorkelling trips he does his best to get everyone engaged in their surroundings. From identifying species to sorting your camera problems - he can do it.
Advice for Potential Travellers
You need to be able to swim for this trip, and the fitter you are the more you will get out of it. Having said that there is plenty of opportunity for chilling out on deck with a good book. Surprisingly spacious, you can find your own space on the Felicity should you so desire some time to yourself. Don’t pack much. Rash vest, sunscreen, 2 lots of swimwear (one on, one drying), flip flops for shore excursions, sun glasses and hat are a must. If your thinking of getting a waterproof camera - do! It’s great fun and they will help you with it! If you don’t sleep on airplanes go a night early and stay in a hotel in Male to gather yourself before your trip (it’s well worth it).
SATISFACTION GUARANTEED: EVERY DAY IS EPIC.
This was a magical ‘out of this world’ adventure that went way beyond my wildest dreams. Dive in – a spectacular tropical paradise awaits below and above the warm turquoise water. It was incredibly spine-tingling getting up unbelievably close to whale sharks, manta rays, turtles, eagle rays, dolphins, sharks and a vast array of stunning colourful fish. ‘MV Felicity’ was THE ideal way to have these unforgettable encounters with marine wildlife and ‘chill out’ at the same time. I can not recommend this more highly and it totally ‘recharged’ my batteries. Captain Shafi and crew were outstanding and from the moment I stepped aboard this gulet, I felt at home.
Most Inspirational Moment
Swimming along beside ‘Fernando’, a magnificent 7.2m long whale shark.
Thoughts on Group Leader
KAMEY is THE BEST, the finished article, the ‘real deal’. He is perfect in this role - going the 'extra mile’ at every opportunity to make this the trip of a lifetime for the entire group.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Book it!
Don't Think About It ...Do It !!
Just stunning :0
One of the best holidays I have had and just what I needed to de-stress
Wanting to visit the Maldives and travelling on my own this is a fabulous way of seeing it
As soon as you step out of the airport …there it is ! absolutely stunning turquoise sea !!
You get transferred to the gullet via boat. Stepping on board kick your shoes off and RELAX 🙂
My double room was a decent size as was the bathroom
The rest of the group (5) were lovely and we got on well
All of the staff were lovely and nothing was too much trouble
The food was gorgeous and fresh and also plentiful !! You will not go hungry
Most Inspirational Moment
Inspirational ....all of it !! We managed to get an private showing of a whale shark after most of the other boats had gone :) Utterly mind blowing and blissful also the delight of watching the manta rays gliding around so elegantly. I have dived in the red sea and THIS knocks spots of it !! Some of the snorkels were like swimming through an aquarium and overall what we didn't see isn't worth mentioning quite a lot of it due to the leader Kamay and Shafy (Captain) and also Oubi pointing things out to us that we could of easily missed The two presentations were interesting and great to hear such work is being done to preserve the wildlife and the corals
Thoughts on Group Leader
Fabulous !! I thought he was warm, professional, informative and funny. He clearly is passionate about what he does but with a relaxed attitude I'm envious of his office :) Overall everyone were friendly attentive and a total pleasure to be around Let's put it this way I didn't want to come home !!
Advice for Potential Travellers
It will help to be a reasonable swimmer and wearing a rash vest or UV suit is helpful to prevent from getting burnt also giving you a bit of warmth. Don't get me wrong the sea is warm but if your doing a drift snorkel you can still get chilly
