Wasn't entirely sure what I was joining today. Went to Jetty#1 and waited.
Apparently, my new friend Shaan had managed to get me on a 25us$ sail tour. The tour is meant for people working in the Maldives. Usually no tourist join this tour. We were only 6 people onboard. Everyone, except me, was working with tourism.
All young people from 5 different countries.
We sailed for about 1 hour to reach a big sandbank, with a tiny sand island in the middle.
We went for a swim, and we relaxed at the bank. I was snorkeling in the edge of the bank. There was heaps of coral and colorful fish. A very nice place for snorkeling.
We had a nice lunch onboard with fresh MahiMahi fish.
Back in Male late afternoon. Two from the crew took me to a nice guesthouse where I'm staying for the night. Half price from yesterday. 55us$.
Again I managed to find a nice local meal for very few $$.
Tomorrow I'm probably off to another island. Male is basically one 'big' city covering the entire island of Male. Busy, but still laid back compared with Sri Lanka's bigger cities.
