Maldives BUDGET PARADISE ISLAND - DHIGURAH (Local island)

This is Maldives budget paradise island, Dhigurah, which has one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, but is super affordable compared to the expensive private resort islands. In this video we will show you around the local island of Dhigurah and hopefully see whale sharks and manta rays which is what this island if famous for!

love this guys - we did Cinnamon Velifushi Resort on Atoll Vaavu with our 2 kids over Christmas. Not cheap ! My wife and I have just booked Unwind in Dhigurah as we fell in love with snorkeling and adventuring . It's cost us a fifth of the price of the rest we booked, cant wait !

I found your channel when I was looking for Borracay review. I liked the detail comparison video like Borracay vs Bali vs Lombok. But end up found out there is an affordable option to visit Maldives. I immediately booked for my family of 4 and had an amazing time in Maldives with a budget just about same with a trip to Bali (from Vietnam). And your video is filmed beautifully which I know now is such a hard work because of the hustle underwater. So keep up the good work! truly inspiring.

My favorite travel adventurers never disappoint. You guys always find spectacular little known places to visit. Your videos continue to be more and more entertaining, informative, fun, engaging and professional. Always look forward to your videos to give me travel ideas!

What an incredible place! Another great video as always 😃

Be good to see more islands with accommodation and possible abit of nightlife or places to eat nearer to Male which also have nice beaches and diving / snorkeling. This video is great that you are sharing as it gives budget travellers a chance to visit Maldives without the hefty price tag !! Well done both of you !! Looking forward to your next videos ☺ [watching from UK]

Vielen Dank für das Video! Wir sind seit 3 Wochen auf Sun Island und morgen geht es nach Dhigurah.

You can go across Dhigurah sandbank only when water level is very low (very low tide). Most of the time you can't go across. Saying from experience.

Amazing!! Reminds me of my honeymoon! Spend about 5 nights on a water villa it was awesome. Enjoy guys!😊

[tinawimberley]

WOW!! I never thought I'd be able to afford to go to the Maldives, but you've got me planning my next trip here! Your trip is checking off so much of my bucket list list, absolutely amazing!! 😍🥰❤
What month did you go?

[usmanmahmood]

I like both of your styles and i think you being a fellow brit just come across authentic and witty

[brucepool]

Love all your videos. Do you use a gimbal for your GoPro to record your talking to the camera and if so what gimbal please? It's very stable and none of that camera jumping when you walk. Well done and thanks

Tried to watch y'all's videos in the background while doing things in the kitchen.. and I can't because I keep wanting to pause and save a shot of something amazing you've filmed!!
