gymfreak Posted August 9, 2016 #26 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Hello there Vicki, we hope you and Charlie are well. Fredy and I had a great day on the island and the snorkelling is great, you'll really enjoy it. The island is very small, it couldn't have taken us ten minutes to walk around it. I really can't imagine a resort having been built there.Although everywhere has its charm, Male isn't the most interesting place we've been to. It has a fish market and mosque and not much more to see. On the occasion we were there,not the time we did Kuda Bandos with Azamara, everyone was back on the ship after about an hour and a half, less for many. If you are tendered as we were in 2014, definitely take the free tender to the island, you'll love it. Jenni Hi Jenni, lovely to hear from you and Fredy. It sounds like a perfect chill day for us. We shall definatly pack the snorkelling gear. Are you on this sailing? Hope we meet again some day on the high seas! Love to you both Vicki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBMacLaird Posted August 9, 2016 #27 Share Posted August 9, 2016 (edited) Hi Bonnie, Any news about the plans for this port Nov 12, 2016? The land Discoveries brochure remains the same. Thanks, Lisa No, but thanks for reminding me. I'll shoot off a msg to the itinerary dept again. Flash update...my Itin Dept says they are waiting for more info from the Port Agent in Maldives. As soon as I hear I'll post. Edited August 9, 2016 by BBMacLaird Quickly rcvd reply from HQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandma Gilly Posted September 1, 2016 #33 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Interesting as we were meant to tender at Kuda Bandos but docked in Male Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CYNSport Posted September 2, 2016 #34 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I am not sure what this answer means. Are we docking in Male or anchoring at Kuda Bandos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo_On_Geo Posted September 2, 2016 Author #35 Share Posted September 2, 2016 (edited) I am not sure what this answer means. Are we docking in Male or anchoring at Kuda Bandos? I got independant confirmation from LCV Nicole that we will be off Kuda Bandos, with the tenders to the picnic island. The Male tours will probably leave from the ship via other tenders. However as mentioned by G Gilly this could possibly change at a later date. Edited September 2, 2016 by Leo_On_Geo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
