Following lunch you will be taken by your local guide on an exploration trip of the island of Gan by jeep. You will visit a number of historical places and learn more about the history of the Maldives and local life, even visiting a fish factory and a local vegetable farm. Keep an eye out for the local herd of goats that are often found hiding in the undergrowth! The trip includes a visit to a local café to sample traditional ‘hedika’ – Maldivian savory and sweet snacks served with black tea

Day 4 is your chance to give SCUBA diving a go! The dive centre is a PADI registered dive school operated by Europeans and locals and was the first PADI scuba diving and water sports center on a local island in Laamu Atoll. For those who have not dived before, we offer a Discover Scuba Diving Course where you learn the basic safety guidelines and skills needed to dive under the direct supervision of a PADI Professional. You will complete two dives from the shore. Qualified divers can take 2 dives by boat to explore this virtually untouched paradise. For guests who would prefer not to dive we offer a guided snorkeling tour.

This morning you head out to the waves for the opportunity to learn to stand up paddle, windsurf or surf. With an instructor, learn and practice the skills required on land before testing them on the water. After an energetic morning the afternoon is free for you to relax or choose from additional activities and excursions which include dolphin watching and evening fishing.

On Day 6, breakfast is served at the guesthouse and the day is yours to enjoy as you please, relax on the beach or for those feeling energetic practice some of their new found skills. Optional diving trips can be organised for certified divers and a visit to the 5* resort of Six Senses can be organised (subject to availability).

Following breakfast served at the guesthouse we head to a private uninhabited island where you can relax, sunbathe, swim or snorkel the beautiful waters whilst a BBQ lunch is prepared. After lunch more of the same before returning to Gan. Fruit cocktails will be served on the beach at sunset before a farewell dinner.

After breakfast you are transferred back to Velana International Airport (MLE) where the tour ends.
