In this fast paced world, some rarely take the time to live in the moment and appreciate the small blessings in life. Many more refuse to slow down and work tirelessly towards their ambitions, goals and dreams. While these are valid efforts, one of the best ways to refocus and re-evaluate life is to take a well deserved holiday. What better way to unwind, relax and enjoy than visiting the panoramic cluster of islands in the Indian Ocean and residing in a Maldives luxury resort? When in Maldives, relaxation is a key word that many hotels seek to provide. This cluster of islands make you feel lighter, simply upon arrival and the gorgeous natural beauty combined with the multitude of leisure activities available, create a recuperative experience that is well worth the expense.
Ranging from water sports to full body massages at the Sheraton Maldives Full Moon Resort & Spa, unwinding in Maldives can be as adrenaline filled or slow paced as you wish. Given the sandy beaches bordered by the aquamarine ocean and the tropical sun, many choose to relax by the ocean or by the pool, sunbathing or reading and enjoying the atmosphere.
For those who wish to engage in water based activities, snorkelling is a beloved favourite. Enjoy seeing the world in a blue tinged light as you dive below the calm ocean surface and towards the colourful corals below. Another superb experience can be had by diving with Manta Rays in Lady Elliot’s Island. The best time for Manta sightings is during the monsoon for they congregate and travel in flocks ensuring that you have a memorable once in a life time experience that can scarcely be forgotten. Other superb ways to unwind include catching a few wave breaks while surfing, waterskiing, kayaking and parasailing. When in Maldives, relaxation is never a pursuit. It is a comfortable reality.
