Things to Do

The beaches of Maamigili are beautiful enough to be posted on Instagram but not that great. Here we have 5 to 6 loungers, space for only 4 persons under one sunshade, as well as a few cobwebbed umbrellas which allow streaky sunlight to penetrate them. The bikini beach at Maamigili proper is also quite good though with such an array of activities to engage in; I would suggest that you spend some time sightseeing during the day.


Besides snorkeling trips that allow you see whale sharks and manta rays at US$ 65 per person, there are also journeys to nearby picnic islands worth US$ 75, sandbank US$ 45, dolphin watching for US$ 35, turtle snorkeling US$ 50, sunset fishing involving barbeque at night US$ 55, reef undertaking at US$ 50, island-hopping among others.


Picnic island has the most beautiful secluded beach with a reef that you can spend hours exploring, located a 10-minute boat ride away.


Holiday Island Resort is only one minute away from here by boat for those who feel that they need pampering and comfort provided by this kind like a resort while Sun Island is just at 15 Minutes away through a speedboat. For the Sun Island you have first to make a payment for transport to go there even though it’s free on entry after 6 PM each day without forgetting that after six you will be allowed to watch shark feeding have drinks as part of night entertainment. The entrance to the Holiday island costs $25 per day pass, but you can always go in without paying anything if you are going for a massage.
