Fourth day in Maldives

October 09, 2012

We woke up earlier this day for sunrise capture, it is near to Asian Wok, but the day wasn't perfect as too many clouds covered the sun, however sea view of Maldives is still so beautiful that I was really happy we were there. After sun rose, we backed to sleep for an extra hour before we went for breakfast.

After breakfast, we walked along the beach toward sunset bar as we got a free 15 minutes welcome massage session with Duniya Spa, massage was fine and view from Duniya Spa is perfect, perhaps any view in Maldives is just great, I don't even can find a complaining word about sea view over there. Sea is clear, sky is blue and white sandy beach, accompany by mind calming wave rhythm, it is just a place that we call paradise.

Later on, we got our 30 minutes snorkeling lesson at water sport, the instruction gave us some basic overview on snorkeling, how to mask sure the mask is air tight, how to put on it more efficiency, how to use a fin and walk with a fin, and he also tell us about snorkeling in Vilamendhoo Island, the instructor told us we can view more beautiful coral at south of island and there are more special sea creature at north. Yes, this is what we experienced this few days, he also told us current at north is more aggressive, so we need to be careful when swimming there.

Due to too many activities these few days, we both were feeling tired after noon, so we only spent our time sitting idle and reading book on beach chair in front of our rooms, this is a relaxing way to spend our time by seeing this beautiful ocean and listening to rhythm of seawave.

We went for snorkeling again around 4pm, we revisited the reef exit near to water villa that we visited yesterday, but I found it is not as beautiful as reef at water sport center this time, though we still could see a lot of fish and one of them in yellow colour which swims in horizontal direction, quite a special style. However, current at that area is really aggressive, sometime we really would worry if we will be flowed away from the island.

Today weather wasn't bad as most time were sunny with some periodical raining for short while. It is still better than what I searched from weather forecast.
