Guests say it best

  • A small group of us recently spent a week with Gen and Pico from Jimmy's, and oh my gosh, what an absolute dream! Each day just kept getting better and better. Their knowledge of the area made for such an incredible, bucket-list experience. I would definitely recommend using Jimmy's, and I'll absolutely be back! Thanks Gen and Pico for an amazing week

  • Book your trip to Maldives with Jimmys – you won't regret it! The owners, Gen and Picco, are amazing. They show you every corner of the beautiful Vaavu Atoll with so much thought and care. Days out on the boat, checking out lots of local islands, hanging out with stingrays, snorkelling through amazing coral reefs, and cruising through the water with dolphins. They also go out of their way to help you with anything you need before/during your trip. And they take beautiful videos and photos for you.

    Thank you, Gen and Picco, for the magical week! I can't wait to be back soon.

  • The team at Jimmys gave us the most memorable experience of our Maldives trip so far. They were extremely knowledgeable, kind and took the time to answer any and all questions we had. The tours are 100% bang for your buck and often include amazing photos and videos for you to take home the memory of your adventure.

    The coral gardens were beautiful and full of life, the boat and the snorkelling equipment comfortable and the snorkels were unforgettable.

  • My favourite excursion Center with the most heartwarming people! If you're looking for an experience with people that love where they live and just want to show you the true beauty of this atoll there is no other place to go! They'll always try to give you the best experience possible! Thank you so much for the amazing trips and the beautiful wildlife encounters Gen and Picco! I'll always come back!

Frequently asked questions

What excursions are available?

We offer a curated selection of ocean experiences designed to showcase the very best of the Maldives. From snorkeling with nurse sharks, dolphins, and turtles to exploring vibrant coral gardens and untouched sandbanks, every trip is thoughtfully planned based on conditions, timing, and guest preferences. Our signature experiences also include private island escapes and fully customized itineraries for those looking for something truly special.

What is the best time to book an excursion?

We recommend booking your excursions in advance, especially during peak season (Dec-April), as availability can be limited due to our small group approach.

That said, we always do our best to accommodate last-minute requests based on availability and weather conditions. Once you arrive, we'll also advise on the best days to go based on ocean conditions to ensure the best possible experience.
