Mahaba was my favourite of the four islands, but that was in no small part due to the fact that I spent the most time there. Digyo is recommended for people who want to camp, but we sought special permission to camp on Mahaba. We were told we’d be doing so at our own risk because, unlike at Digyo, there are no people here to look out for your welfare once the boat leaves. It’s a beautiful island with a very nice beach and some nice bird life, but it was the snorkelling here that I most enjoyed. There’s a very steep drop-off a short distance out from the beach which would require diving equipment to explore properly, but everywhere else was perfect for snorkelling. For me the highlights included seeing; a yellow-lipped sea krait, a moray eel, mantis shrimp and a lion fish. I’ve wrote separate reviews on the other islands in the group but if you only have the option to visit just one of these islands this is the one I’d recommend above the others.

Love this Island the only thing bad about it is it doesn’t have restroom! But I still love the place fine white sands!
