Activities at Keyodhoo
Experience the best of both worlds at Keyodhoo Guest House. Island Lifestyle and freedom ! Your accommodation is on a small inhabited Island where you will experience the true Maldivian Island lifestyle and be welcomed as part of the local community. Every day , you will hop aboard our traditional Maldivian boat ( Dhoni ) for a short 15 minute ride, and be transported to our activity Island where the total freedom begins !! Swimming , Snorkelling, exploring or relaxing on the white sandy beach.
SNORKELLING, This has to be one of the most beautiful places in the world to experience snorkelling. Even if you are in one meter of water the fish life will be attracted to you and you will experience the wonders of the marine life available at the Maldives. For those more experienced, you only have to swim a few more meters and you will discover the edges of the reef and a huge variety of sea life beneath you. Our uninhabited “Activity Island” is the perfect location for learners and experienced snorkelers to enjoy this fantastic experience.
FISHING in the Maldives is great fun ! If you new to fishing our staff will assist you in every way so you can get that photo of the fish you caught to show your friends back home. If your a more experienced fisherman there is plenty of large game fish for you to try your hand at ! Catch your own fish for a beach bar-b-que, cooked traditionally over the hot coals… you won’t get any fresher than that ! For a family day outing, this is simply the best. The smiles on the children’s face when they catch their first fish makes a great photo !
