Het leven in zee 
The reason for mentioning snorkelling and diving among the things to do near Hard Rock Hotel Maldives  is that the waters that surround the nation’s islands can be termed a bustling underwater metropolis! With over 2,000 species of fish, including vibrant parrotfish, stealthy sharks and majestic manta rays, every journey beneath the waves is a spectacle. Other denizens of the deep here include slow-and-steady tortoises, playful dolphins and magnificent whales, all swimming wild and free.

Landwezens
While the Maldives may be made up of 99% water (yes, that’s a FACT!), the many scattered islands that make up the remaining 1% of land are home to a few fascinating land-based wildlife. On your holiday, be on the lookout to spot the elusive Indian flying fox; these fruit bats might not wear capes, but they will get your attention! The country is also home to hermit crabs, garden shrews, geckos, garden lizards and frogs each part of a delicate island ecosystem.

Vogelleven

Birdwatchers will be thrilled to know that more than 100 bird species have been spotted including sandpipers, white-breasted waterhens, white terns, shrikes, herons, frigatebirds and more. So, don’t forget to keep your eyes peeled and your camera ready for these high-flying celebrities of the sky!
