We have been visiting Soneva Fushi in the Maldives for many years.

It is a very laid back island, food is great and the reefs around it are just fantastic.

I have more photos and videos to post, both from above and below the sea.

I hope you enjoy them.

Below I have added some video clips taken from a drone, DJI Mavic Pro Platinum.

They are in UHD 4K, so they are large files.

Please download to tour computer to view them

Just great!! Thanks for letting me tag along behind you.

You are very welcome.

I am processing more media which I will post as I finish them.

Glad you enjoy them.

Beautiful!

Looks incredible. Some fantastic photos there Saeed.

I have processed some video clips which being uploaded right now to our server.

They are all in UHD 4K, and quite large in size.

So please bear in mind that it might take a while to download them, depending on your connection speed.

But, the quality is fantastic.

All are from the drone.

I will post some underwater videos later on too.

The videos I will link on my first post on the thread.

Awesome photos! So cool to see the dolphins doing corkscrew flips!

The manta rays almost look like they're not in water... just floating over rocks.

I like the bird's eye views of the Manta rays.

These are nibula rays.

First time I have ever seen them.

They much smaller than mantas but look the same.

Saeed, I'm going to guess you mean "mobula" rays.

I asked several people about the spelling, everyone had his own version!

There are some confused people out there. Anybody who thinks a marine animal called a Nebula Ray exists are mixing up the observations of rays emitted by Nebulae in space with the marine animal. There are numerous references to X-ray nebula or Nebula emitting gamma-rays in astronomy and I think people just use that, given the similar pronunciation, but they ain't the same thing.

I don't think you'll find any marine biology literature referring to Nebula Rays.

Great photos. My family took your airline last summer and stayed at Club Med - Kani. We missed the rays. I was somewhat disappointed with all the beaching of the reefs. A very enjoyable time for sure.
