Swimming with Gentle Giants - If you're visiting the Maldives, Nurse Shark Snorkelling is an absolute must-do! This was hands down one of the most thrilling yet peaceful experiences of my trip. The crew was incredibly professional, friendly, and ensured everyone felt safe and comfortable throughout. The nurse sharks are majestic and surprisingly calm. It’s such a surreal feeling to swim alongside these gentle giants in the crystal-clear waters. We also got to see vibrant coral reefs and a variety of colorful fish — truly a snorkeler’s paradise. The guides were very knowledgeable and shared interesting facts about the marine life and the sharks’ behavior. They also took some great underwater photos that made for amazing memories! Highly recommended for nature lovers, adventure seekers, or anyone looking to experience the magical underwater world of the Maldives.

Exceeded expectations - Extraordinary and personalized experience for the two of us, surrounded by a multitude of marine species, easy communication from the beginning. Being staying in Hulhumalé we were taken and brought to the dock; both Shiuneez, the coordinator, and the guys who took us on the boat were very friendly, helpful, attentive, very attentive to us ... the experience ended when we decided, they were not in a hurry or looked at the time. Absolutely recommended.

Amazing snorkeling adventure with sharks and rays! - It was really amazing to snorkel with the nurse sharks and pink whip rays. The rays and sharks come so close that they even touch you with their fins and tail. The speedboat brought me quickly to the right spot in the southern Male Atoll where we had enough time for snorkeling. I got videos and pictures that the crew made with a GoPro and drone as a nice memory of an absolutely amazing and well-organized adventure. I can really recommend this excursion to everyone. I wouldn't have wanted to miss it!

Worth the money, fantastic - Fantastic swam with sharks and rays, staff were amazing great day!!! The boat driver Haseed did all the pics and video so amazing made memories of a lifetime, could not wish for a better day. We were so close to the sharks and rays and plenty of beautiful fish like being in a fish tank. The rays glided beneath us whilst the sharks swam around us it was spectacular so grateful to Haseed and his pal who supported us so well. After snorkelling we were provided with fresh fruit snax, we had plenty of bottled water during trip. Boat staff could not do enough for us, very helpful and encouraging, inspiring confidence Thank you

Fantastic experience 👏 - It was an amazing experience taking the nurse shark trip. The organisation of the tour from DAM, was remarkable and a special mention to Neez who help with the entire coordination of the trip from hotel pick up to the full on itinerary which I had the opportunity to freedive with the nurse sharks, black tips and sting rays. I would highly recommend Dream Adventures if you're intending to take up a tour. Thanks guys!

Shark Swimming Experience – Interesting but Not What We Expected - The trip was organized well and everything went smoothly, but overall, it felt very touristy. We were brought to the spot along with a large group of people, and once we arrived, there was already another crowd in the water. Everyone was quickly rushed into the water, and it felt like being packed like dumplings, floating together with the school of sharks that were swimming around and beneath us. Diving was not allowed — we could only float on the surface. The sharks live in an enclosed area and are regularly fed, which made the experience feel more staged than natural. The ride to the location took about 1.5 hours one way, but the actual time in the water was just around 30 minutes. There were no toilets on the boat, and the entire experience was very rushed, with no time to use any facilities once we arrived. Overall, it was an interesting and unique experience, but it wasn’t exactly what we had imagined.
