Manta Adventure excursions in Amilla Fushi and Finolhu a buzz
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Amilla Fushi and Finolhu have announced a Manta Adventure excursion offering guests a unique opportunity to swim with the graceful giants at Hanifaru Bay, a renowned protected marine area and the world’s largest natural feeding destination for the rays. In Baa Atoll, Maldives, the summer months of June to November mean only one thing; Manta Ray season.
This is when Reef Manta Rays migrate in their hundreds to feed in the atoll’s plankton-rich waters – offering unrivalled viewing opportunities for anyone lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time.
Guests can even sign up to Amilla and Finolhu’s exclusive ‘Manta-on-Call’ hotline to ensure they will never miss an opportunity for a close-up with the majestic creatures, with spontaneous speedboat outings organised during sightings, says The Small Maldives Island Co. (TSMIC), the manager of Amilla Fushi and Finolhu.
The new Manta Adventure excursions are run from Amilla and Finolhu H.U.B (Home of the Underwater Biosphere), a hive of water-based activities including guided excursions to explore the captivating house reef, complete with its renowned Blue Hole dive site at Amilla; an enlightening Marine Biology programme highlighting the area’s rich underwater biodiversity; adrenalin-fuelled water sports including Jet Skis, RS Sailing, Paddleboards, X-Jetpacks and Seabobs; and a fleet of private charter vessels for guests to explore the archipelago.
Each and every marine related pursuit has been verified and approved by our resident Marine Biologists on each island, helping to ensure that this fragile environment is protected and preserved for years to come, according to TSMIC.
What’s more, the resort’s experienced Marine Biologists have crafted a series of tailored excursions allowing guests to participate in a number of unique and rewarding conservation projects, combining knowledge and understanding with a hands-on approach.
According to TSMIC, guests can choose their pace of adventure; whether it’s simply relaxing on a deserted sand bank, snorkelling around the stunning coral reefs, or immersing in Maldivian culture with a visit to a local village.
