Overview

Your journey begins at Malé Presidential Jetty (Jetty No.1) where our team will assist you with check-in. From there, a quick boat ride takes you to the submarine’s floating dock. Step inside the fully air-conditioned submarine, designed with 50 passenger seats, and prepare to descend into the blue depths of the Indian Ocean. Over the course of 45 minutes underwater, you’ll glide past Tear Drop Reef, one of the Maldives’ most vibrant dive sites. Look out for shoals of tropical reef fish, colorful corals, moray eels, reef sharks, and perhaps even sea turtles swimming nearby. As the submarine surfaces, you’ll return to Malé by boat, completing an exciting 2.5-hour adventure in the Maldives that lets you explore without getting wet.
