“People say, what was the most magical moment in your career as a naturalist? I always reply, ‘The first time I put on a mask and went below the surface'”– Sir David Attenborough
If only we could convince him to come to Soneva Fushi and have a photo with our reefs. We’d be the happiest marine biologists in the Maldives!!

Sir David Attenborough is one of our life’s heroes. His passion for the environment, coupled with his curiosity for the natural world has had us all captivated for years. There are few people who manage to engage across the generations with such a clear message of wonder and admiration for the Earth. He turned 90 this year and is still inspiring future generations of scientists and filmmakers. We raise our snorkels to you Sir David and wish you a truly wonderful birthday!
