Set amid the clear waters of the Raa Atoll, InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort has unveiled Swim with Nurse Sharks, a guided marine activity that allows guests to observe the species within its natural lagoon environment. The snorkelling site lies only minutes from the resort and features calm, shallow conditions suited to watching nurse sharks both at rest and in motion.
Running for one hour and offered three times weekly by speedboat, the experience is limited to small groups. It is designed for families as well as confident swimmers looking to engage more closely with the surrounding marine ecosystem.
Led with a focus on care and environmental respect, the programme highlights the resort’s continued dedication to marine education and responsible wildlife interaction. Participants are introduced to the behaviour of nurse sharks while exploring one of the few easily accessible snorkelling locations in the region dedicated to this species.
Priced at USD 95++ per person, with discounted rates available for children under 12, Swim with Nurse Sharks expands the resort’s portfolio of immersive ocean-based activities.
