Kingsley and I had grand plans of doing an RTI (round the island) snorkel while we were in the Maldives but though the island was small and the swim fairly easy, we totally underestimated the abundance of sea life which slowed down our snorkel adventure to a snails pace as we soaked in the colorful coral and playful fish.  In one day we only covered about 1/3 of the island and on the second day we felt compelled to swim back over the section we had already seen as it was just too beautiful to not visit again.   I thought 5 days on the island would be plenty of time to see everything but we actually ran out of time to snorkel the entire reef.  Which I am ok with only because I secretly hope we can return one day.
