This time we spent time in Maldive, exactly in Kandooma Holiday In Resort.
The journey from Singapore took about 5 hours by flight then 45 minutes by boat.
We want to have peace and silent place for this holiday. I think we got it in Kandoma, Maldive.
The people there very friendly and the nature is really beautiful.


There’s some activity we can do there, like submarine, and also watching the dolphins and snorkeling. There’s a practice session for beginner to understand how to snorkel.
 Bad things I did not get chance to see the turtle in the sea because of the weather. One day we will be back there.
There were a lot of Dolphins, I think this is the most dolphins I’ve ever seen so far, really enjoy seeing them in nature.


Unfortunately the weather not so good, we could not explore much because of the strong wind. But we still can snorkel near by the hotel, the water very clear, and I could see the small fish and event small sharks.
Using the underwater casing DicaPac for My Canon 7D, I could take some fish photos. Quite nice experience to see something amaze down there, near the beach I could find some coral fish and also some sea water snake.
Bring the EOS Canon to the underwater world is a new for me, as a start I used. I cannot control much using this DicaPac case, but it’s quite enough for me to feel and see thru the view finder. Especially when trying to chase the fish. I tried to chase 5 small sharks to get the closer look, unfortunately they were very alert and my mission was fail.

We meet Shahid during the dolphin trip, he is a marine biologist. Surprisingly, my son really likes him, he allowed him to carry him and until now he still mention his name,
when we travel to South Korea, he still say I wanted to meet uncle Shahid.

Shahid explained more about marine life and he is a good photographer, his photos and videos of the turtle are really amazing.

Holiday Inn  room is really cozy and especially the bathroom, we really enjoyed the open bath tub, especially my son, really enjoyed taking bath there.
Nice place for family, we could go around the beach, the food also nice. Breakfast was excellent. For lunch I liked the ‘Nasi Goreng’ and for me the Indonesian, there’s many choice of Indonesian food there, like soto ayam, nasi goreng.
And there’s a gym and spa, the spa is from Balinese Spa.
If you need a peace place and run away from you daily busy activity and pampering yourself, this place is a good choice.
