Spend your days in the company of our certified marine experts, as you explore the richness of the underwater world—from diving through incredible reefs teeming with schools of pelagic fish, to snorkeling with hawksbill turtles and manta rays. Come evening, cast out on a sunset cruise, and enjoy cocktails at dusk in the company of spinner and bottlenose dolphins. Or head to nearby Vaadhoo island, where you can witness the extraordinary Sea of Stars phenomenon, when bioluminescent phytoplankton in the island’s reef causes the sea to glimmer like the starry night sky.
