How to Reach Banana Reef

Situated in the North Male Atoll, Banana Reef comprises a protected marine area full of dramatic cliffs, breathtaking coral growths, fascinating caves and overhangs, along with some big predators like barracuda, sharks etc. It is also the first internationally recognized reef of the nation. This reef is exclusively popular for the snorkelling practices.

Being situated in one of the most developed atolls of Maldives in terms of hotels and resorts, Banana reef is quite easy to reach. Formed like a banana, this natural reef extends from the Northeast to Southern region covering an area of approximately 300 meters. The nearby resort islands present in the Maldives include Kurumba island, Club MED island and Fullmoon island which is equally popular world-over.

Since the time the North Male Atoll has attracted a scuba diver (which was nearly twenty years from now), Banana Reef has gained a different status. It is highly coveted as an ideal spot for adventure lovers. Another most prosperous feature about this island is its fishes. The fishes present here, have absolutely no fear of the photographers, so one can easily capture some excellent shots of the Banana Reef. Although, it becomes important to be a bit conscious during the strong water currents. As sometimes, it gets really tough to hold the control over the boat when strong current lashes the delicate reef. Banana reef is full of fantastic hotels, inn and resorts, so accommodation is not a big concern. One can find some great holiday packages in very budget.

The answer of how to reach Banana Reef is quite simple. First, one needs to take a flight to reach Male International Airport. To take the journey further, boats, seaplanes and private yachts are the options to reach Male North Atoll. The boat service here is equivalent to a car, whereas sea planes and yachts are more likely to be used by the tourists. Private transfers are mostly expensive. It is important to note that air taxis and boats are not operating at night, therefore, it is always advisable to plan the travel to avoid reaching there around darkness. Public ferries and cargo boats are other options available for budget conscious and independent-minded travelers.

    Ankit's 4 days trip to Maldives

    We has a good stay at Maldives. We preferred to stay on both public and private island. The travel agent planned the same efficiently. The private island experience was great. But if you are with kids there are access restrictions in few areas of resort. Transportation was hassle free good as per
    our preference. All transports are shared only even if they are speedboats. So plan you flights accordingly. The public island experience was not up to the mark. We were not able to contact the local island person and we could have missed the speedboat by 2 mins. Even the best hotel rooms are not great, but the activities cost is very reasonable at public island. Stay and hospitality at Sun Siyam hotel. Very friendly

    Sambeet Khadanga

    Hyderabad

    Sambeet's 5 days trip to Maldives

    Hotel Review: Holiday Inn Kandooma was one of the best resort. Its a family oriented resort as upto 2 kids stay and food were free. Hospitality was the best. Everyone was helpful and humble. After reaching airport, we just needed to search the counter for Holiday Inn. Post that, transfer, food, stay
    everything was taken care and was very smooth inside the resort. Food options were less for veg, but we enjoyed a lot. Activities were chargeable, only house reef snorkeling was free and we enjoyed a lot. We booked 2N beach villa, and 2N over water villa. 3N would've been sufficient i think. 4N was too much since island was small and no where to roam. If you want to relax then you can book for more days. Always go for the All Inclusive plan coz drinks are too costly. Agent review: Divine Journey team was excellent. Raj Tripathi has helped us a lot in choosing the best plan anf was cheaper than market rates what others had been offering. He has helped in booking the right rooms with the right plans. Kudos to the team for making our first international trip wonderful. Good Trip
