The Maldives islands are currently garnering immense recognition for the wide variety of marine life that is found around her waters, especially when it comes to Sharks. Maldives became a shark sanctuary and forbade any sort of fishing operation, commercial or otherwise that targets sharks. Most of the shark species around the entire world have been listed as endangered and contrary to popular belief, many species of shark aren’t predatory or harmful towards humans.
Sharks enter sexual maturity much later than most creatures, and once they do mate, the amount of offspring is very limited, these factors, along with fishing, have catalysed the decline of their numbers. Due to this, many places in the Maldives function as Shark nurseries, providing safe havens for infantile sharks as well as aiding the development of the population of the species. In such areas you will be able to interact with baby Grey Tips and Lemon Sharks. Both of these species are threatened by recreational as well as commercial fishing activities so this proves as a rare opportunity to interact with such magnificent yet misunderstood creatures.
If you’re considering an international adventure, turn it into an excursion you will cherish for a lifetime with a trip to the Maldives.
