Ask any traveller who has been to the Maldives and they are bound to tell you that you haven’t really seen a sunset till you have witnessed one in the Maldives in all its spectacular grandeur! If you are planning a trip here, these are some ways to soak up this unforgettable sight.
An Island Resort
With each resort on its own island, you will have all the space and serenity you need. Whether you are lounging with family or sharing a moment with that special someone, the pristine shores that surround properties like Grand Park Kodhipparu Maldives offer the ideal vantage point. What’s more, the setting sun also provides the perfect backdrop for yoga sessions and water sports like canoeing and catamaran sailing too.
A Private Villa
Adding to the allure of private island resorts are beach and overwater Maldives villas, where sunsets unfold right across your doorstep. Be it as you step out onto the soft sand or from your deck above the lagoon or ocean, you can look forward to this gorgeous sight each day. Some resorts even serve a meal at sunset on a Dhoni-shaped floating tray at your villa’s private pool… now that’s what you call living the dream!
Excursions at Sunset
The ‘golden hour’ is also ideal for certain excursions in Maldives. Embark on a sunset cruise, perfect for those looking to set the mood for romance as you both enjoy being ‘lost in love’ amidst this utterly magical sight. Alternatively, you can hop aboard a Dhoni (a traditional boat) for some sunset fishing as you learn to catch fish the local way while taking in the awe-inspiring sight across the horizon.
Sunset Private Dining
Choose a resort that also lets you experience private dining which takes full advantage of the stunning backdrop at this time. This includes sharing a five-course beach dinner prepared by a dedicated chef and team served under an enchanting pergola on the beach. A unique option is to enjoy a meal at sunset aboard a private floating deck amidst the soothing sights and sounds of the ocean.
