The work builds on QComms’ specialist experience in travel and destination communications, supporting brands looking to increase visibility across the UAE and GCC.

The exclusive experience invites guests to snorkel alongside majestic manta rays in the UNESCO-protected waters of Hanifaru Bay.

 As summer holidays begin and GCC travellers seek unforgettable escapes, Finolhu, a Seaside Collection Resort, invites guests to experience one of the Maldives’ most extraordinary natural wonders with its Marine Mysteries & Conservation Journey. Located within the UNESCO-protected Baa Atoll, the vibrant island resort is surrounded by crystal-clear waters, pristine beaches and some of the region’s richest marine biodiversity.

Available from now to 30 November, the exclusive experience for two, offers the rare opportunity to snorkel alongside majestic manta rays in the world-renowned waters of Hanifaru Bay. Known for hosting one of the largest seasonal gatherings of manta rays on the planet, the protected marine sanctuary provides a truly unforgettable encounter as these gentle giants glide gracefully through the bay’s nutrient-rich waters.

Led by Finolhu’s professional marine team, the excursion offers guests a front-row seat to one of nature’s most spectacular sights. The experience also includes a guided coral propagation activity with the resort’s Marine Biologist, offering insight into ongoing reef restoration efforts that help protect the Maldives’ delicate marine ecosystems.

Set across two kilometres of white sandy beaches and just a 30-minute seaplane journey from Malé, Finolhu is ushering in a new chapter of island living following a full transformation. The resort blends contemporary Maldivian design with a vibrant sense of luxury across 125 redesigned villas and a refreshed collection of island experiences. From family-focused activities and creative art spaces to wellness journeys and diverse dining concepts, the island delivers a dynamic and uplifting escape for all generations.

With the Marine Mysteries & Conservation Journey at Finolhu, a Seaside Collection Resort, it makes the perfect addition to the resort’s excurions, adding a deeper layer of adventure to a sun-soaked Maldivian summer escape.
