      The easiest way to get the baby sharks is when they are amongst a group of the sardines, they don't really notice you.

    This is a lovely video Kenny. So well filmed and edited. I am new to the gopro and editing experience and recently uploaded my video "Snorkelling at Kuramathi, Maldives in September 2018" if you have the time to view. I am now looking to decide where my next snorkelling excursion could take me, and your recommendations have made Vilamendhoo a consideration. My only disappointment was that i did not see any turtles during my time in Kuramathi, but so much enjoyed your footage of them in your video. Many thanks Kenny.

    • @Venomous1985ka
      @Venomous1985ka  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Stephen! i will take a look, there are not that many turtles at vilamendhoo either to be fair. We are returning for our 2nd trip to Kuredu in January where there are LOADS of turtles (50-60)

    Wow, very nice shooting & editing! I love Vila, been there exactly one year ago.
    You were lucky to have swam with the whale shark..we took Ocean discovery excursion twice+a half day trip and no luck; we saw only mantas which were amazing to see also; one eagle ray around the house reef and turtles & other species of fish (including the nasty titan triggerfish) of course
    Amazing...unfortunately I saw also a lot of people damaging the reef with the fins and sitting on the it, not using the reef exit points...I dont comment on the nationality, but there are more and more coming there and I hope the management will do something about this otherwise this movie will be not a reality anymore..
    Mirihi is on our next Maldivian trip wish list (same group as Vila, Kuredu and Komandio which we have visited before)
    Do you know and have been to another island with the same nice house reef close to a whale shark point?

    • @Venomous1985ka
      @Venomous1985ka  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Alina Mariana Lache Thanks Alina yeah the guys did say whale shark was 50/50 i'm sorry it wasn't as lucky for you. I totally agree with the people standing on the coral (of a certain nationality). I heard lily beach (very close to vilamendhoo) is a nice island to try. Been to Kuredu and Komandoo also which are great but obviously the wrong atoll to see whale sharks. I think Sun Island is the closest to the whale shark area but i've not heard good things about the island as there's a lot of concrete.

    • @Venomous1985ka
      @Venomous1985ka  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      hi Sam, it really depends on which island you visit, not all of them have a house reef. If you went to vilamendhoo you are almost guaranteed to see everything in the video except the whale sharks which you need to go on a boat trip to find. Also vilamendhoo is a bit short on turtles! Nearly everything else though you would see no problem.

    • @Venomous1985ka
      @Venomous1985ka  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sam's Playground Tripadvisor is the best place to ask, if you post your budget they can give some suggestions. This was our 3rd island but have visited a few others and they are all different in size/reef quality etc, good luck!

  • @chris4divingchris

    • @Venomous1985ka
      @Venomous1985ka  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Venomous1985ka  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      +robert clarke Yeah sure, if you have a hero 3 or older, take anti fog inserts, they are really cheap. Also if you are diving 10m+ i would consider a red filter but other than that just try and keep the camera as still as possible which i have learned the hard way! :-)

    • @robertclarke3809
      @robertclarke3809 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @Venomous1985ka
      @Venomous1985ka  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      +robert clarke I'm sure you will, if the island you're going to doesn't have a house reef there will be plenty of trips by boat I'm sure. Whale sharks are mainly in the South Ari atoll but there's manta rays and sharks pretty much everywhere.

    • @Venomous1985ka
      @Venomous1985ka  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Derek Smailes Hi Derek, the whale sharks are pretty much 50/50 they said but they do a full day trip where the chances are very high. The rays in this video are Eagle rays and they are found around the island. There aren't many turtles at vilamendhoo but the excursion chances of seeing them are high. Another island I went to, Kuredu.. the turtles are all over the island shores and very easy to see.

    I keep coming back to watch these videos man. Did you use some kind of red filter for underwater videography?

    • @Venomous1985ka
      @Venomous1985ka  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks mate, no red filter needed for snorkelling as not deep enough, you can add a bit of red back in to the post-processing in the go pro software quite easily

    Did you use filter with your go pro? If so, what kind of filter. Nice vid btw.

    • @Venomous1985ka
      @Venomous1985ka  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, no filter used just the go pro software to sharpen/correct colour. The default colour is very faded compared to real life so looks a bit better.

    Andrew Thanks for this amazing video! I go to Vilamendhoo in May, I can't wait to see this picture with my own eys... One question, what kind of snorking mask do you use? You have rented it at the resort or took it with you?
    Regarding the image capture, during the snorkeling do you use everytime the pole? Thanks for the help :-)

    • @Venomous1985ka
      @Venomous1985ka  9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ***** Hi Marco, thanks for your comment. Lucky you going to Vilamendhoo... I would definitely buy a mask before you go as i don't think the rental ones are great and you will want a good fit otherwise it might leak/fog up. Mine is just a Cressi set from amazon. With the filming I used the gopole for most of it yeah.

    Awesome footage! I like how the Transformers music goes perfectly with it hahaha! We are going for our honeymoon in August so fingers crossed it won't rain for the full 7 days we are there as I heard it will be Monsoon Season around then. By the way did you see any spiders during your stay? We are both petrified of them....

    • @Venomous1985ka
      @Venomous1985ka  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Michael Truong thanks Michael! Don't worry about Spiders, i've been to 5 islands and never seen a spider. There are too many small lizards running round eating them all. "Rainy" season is from May to November and i've gone within this timeframe every time and usually it only rains for the odd 10 minutes then clear and dry in just as short a time. Enjoy!

I also wanted to ask if you would recommend we buy all our snorkeling gear beforehand or is the gift shop at Vilamendhoo reasonably priced for these also? As we don't want to go over our baggage allowance of 20Kg on the seaplane either.... Thanks again for the tips!

    • @Venomous1985ka
      @Venomous1985ka  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Definitely take your own, it will work out more expensive to hire there and you'll get a much better fit with snorkel etc if you buy them before you go.
