A comprehensive introduction outlines the main changes to the marine environment since the book was first published in 2000.

In Marine Life of the Maldives – Indian Ocean this truly magnificent spectacle is captured in 344 pages of vivid photographs with authoritative text by one of Australia’s leading Marine Naturalists.

Marine Life of the Maldives also provides teachers of marine biology with a useful reference for conducting marine courses and ecological surveys.

The Maldives is known for its stunning natural beauty and crystal-clear waters, making it a popular destination for tourists seeking a tropical getaway.

Its economy is heavily reliant on tourism, with the industry contributing to over a third of the country's GDP. However, the Maldives also faces challenges such as environmental degradation and political instability.
