Most of us have taken flights to a lot of places in the world, but nothing beats the experience of flying in a seaplane above water.
Maldives has the greatest views in the world when it comes to seascapes and endless skies, now, imagine looking at that beautiful expanse of clear blue waters and scattered islands from above. Mind blowing, isn’t it? A Maldives seaplane ride is something you must try if you are on the island as it is known to be one of the most exhilarating experiences one Earth. Anantara Kihavah Maldives Villas and a few other local resorts offer seaplane excursions that whisk you and your loved one off to a romantic day in an uninhabited island or for a tour ride above the waters.
Some resorts take you to their island on a seaplane right from the airport and in such cases; you’d be allowed to carry about 20kg worth of luggage plus a 5kg as hand luggage. All the seaplanes in Maldives are operated by the Trans Maldivian Airways and they have a separate terminal from which they take off and you’ll be taken to it in an air conditioned bus from the airport.
