Underwater in Maldives | Kurumba Maldives

Snorkeling in the Maldives

The Kurumba Maldives lagoon is surrounded by breakers, which reduce waves and currents. These calm conditions, combined with an average depth of 1 to 1.5 metres, make snorkelling nearby ideal.

Venture out and explore vibrant coral outcrops filled with thriving marine life. Then swim beyond the breakers and witness an even larger world of coral, colourful fish, stingrays, turtles and sharks.
