I only knew that the one ten years ago was called squat snorkeling, the water was very shallow, and people could stand in the water with their heads out, and this time was the real snorkeling. After the speedboat went to the deep sea, the boat boss said, this is the snorkeling area, there are many corals and fish, the people on the same boat all jumped down one by one, I was directly dumbfounded, hesitated for a long time and dared not jump, I had to obediently climb down the ladder, at first I only dared to float near the boat, the boat boss was super nice, took me to float, I was lucky to see turtles, nemo and so on, on the way I also encountered a group of dolphins, it was too perfect... Day 10, free activities on Maafushi Island, It rained in the morning, and the sky cleared in the afternoon. I went out to take pictures and stroll around, a very photogenic small island, Day 11, Male-Colombo-Shanghai
