FUN-travel: Amazing Ari Atoll – Maldives Dive & Snorkel Report – Day 4
December 8, 2016 by Susan Clarke
- Been a little disappointed…so have chosen… to be more selective in my viewing…only want to see fish….up close and personal…with clear waters.
1st Snorkel – Ship’s Captain Adam personally took me…nice drift snorkel…5’ w/better visibility…angel fish…parrot fish…big school of dolphins…9 rating
- Dive Report is subjective…13 people…depends on what they see…and how they see it…so I will give highlights… from those that had a good one…and speak English.
