You will snorkel with dozens of tawny nurse sharks. Despite their name, these are "gentle giants" that are primarily bottom-feeders. They are used to human presence and will often swim right alongside you

Stingray Interaction: Fulidhoo is famous for the large stingrays that frequent the main pier. You can stand in knee-deep water as they glide around your feet. Like the sharks, they are quite friendly, though it's best to observe them naturally. Island Life: Fulidhoo is much quieter and smaller than Maafushi. It offers a glimpse of authentic Maldivian "local island" life with sandy streets, colorful houses, and traditional lacquerware souvenir shops. Bikini Beach: There is a beautiful stretch of beach where you can relax or take a quick swim before heading to the next stop

Dolphin Watching: On the speedboat ride back toward Maafushi, the captain will often detour to Dolphin Lagoon to spot pods of Spinner or Bottlenose dolphins jumping and playing in the boat's wake
