Dolphin Watching in Maldives

Dolphin Watching- one of the very best things to do when in Maldives. Many of the resorts offers this exciting Dolphin watching safari. And for 50USD per person, you will experience a one-of-a-kind nature trip. The tours available are either early morning or late afternoon, as thousands of Spinner dolphins appear into the atolls every morning then leaving again for the open ocean in the late afternoon.

Spinner dolphins, famous for its acrobatic displays, are the most common species in the area and they appear in their tens of thousands. These dolphins are very athletic and many of them leap out of the water as they swim; they can also gracefully flip their bodies round and round in mid-air before splashing back into the water.

My Dolphin Watching in Maldives was truly an amazing experience!

The Capital of Maldives- Male

After a week stay at a resort in the southern part of Maldives, We headed back to Male and decided to stay there for one night to be able to see the capital. A small island located at the southern edge of North Male Atoll with one third of the nation's population, Male is definitely not the picturesque scenery of Maldives. The capital is heavily urbanized and there isn't much to do in Male unless you're interested to go to the local market and shop local products like batiks, pearls, spices, etc.

Downtown!

Muliaage- The Presidential Palace.

Jazz Cafe- Serves good food! Recommended by a Filipina working at our hotel in Male. The chef and the staff working here are also Filipinos. :)
