Maldives, September 2000


Tropical paradise - coral reef can be seen from the plain; landing in Male we pass North Male atoll; all these fish and turtles wait for us.

 

In the lagoon and on the house reef the fish are swarming!

 

Unicorn fish and all kinds of pipe and trumpet fishes come in large numbers.

 

Sharks came quite often to the lagoon, no wonder, with all these fish bubbling in water ...

 

Time for a dive - lobsters and turtles are not so easy to spot in the house reef.

 

First climb the palm, than use an umbrella to get the coconut. Gecko watches this from the ceiling.

 

Merlin and Gecko wondering - who is this guy on our island?
