Coral Care and Stargazing at Outrigger Konotta Maldives Resort Outrigger Konotta Maldives Resort offers great and varied experiences for guests. Situated in a pristine southern atol, there is little light pollution, so a guided stargazing cruise is a must. The resort has its own house reef and marine biologist, Amelia. Go snorkelling with her to discover sea life. If you don’t swim or snorkel, take the glass bottom semi sub to see underwater nature at its best. Afterwards, on land, Amelia explains to families about marine conservation such as coral rehabilitation, part of Outrigger’s OZONE initiative. The full Konotta activities guide is here.
