March 26 – April 6, 2018

Ten unforgettable days on Kuramathi Island in the Maldives — a paradise for both relaxation and underwater exploration. The days followed an easy rhythm: diving, swimming, and enjoying the quiet beauty of the Indian Ocean.

Underwater, every dive revealed new colors and life — reef sharks, turtles, rays, moray eels, and endless schools of fish moving through crystal-clear water. The coral gardens shimmered with life, while playful clownfish and curious batfish added personality to the scenes.

After diving, evenings were spent watching the sunset over the lagoon, enjoying the calm breeze and a well-earned drink. The island’s mix of luxury and nature made it a perfect escape and one of the most memorable dive trips we’ve had.
