Indian Ocean The Maldives
Perfect for winter sun: warm water, easy living and outstanding “big fish” encounters.
Resort diving holidays offer the perfect balance of great diving and a relaxed holiday experience. Stay in comfortable accommodation on land and dive at your own pace, whether that is exploring vibrant house reefs, joining boat dives to nearby sites, or mixing diving with time to unwind, explore and enjoy local culture.
Ideal for individuals, couples, groups and non-diving partners, resort-based holidays give you the flexibility to tailor your trip — from easy warm-water diving in the Red Sea to world-class biodiversity hotspots in Indonesia and the Philippines.
