From unwinding on the beach to discovering mesmerising underwater worlds, the Maldives offers unforgettable family getaways; here’s a glimpse of what to expect.
Family-friendly Resorts
Some properties are tailor-made for family holidays including the likes of Anantara Dhigu Maldives Resort that has a dedicated kids’ club with indoor activities and outdoor play areas. Little ones can also enjoy rides on glass-bottom boats and hands-on cooking classes, while bike rides and movie screenings under the stars are ideal for families.
Special Snorkelling Trips
While there are plenty of water sports for families to try, nothing beats snorkelling in Maldives; resort properties can also offer select excursions that make this activity even more memorable. Some provide special trips where you can snorkel amidst marine creatures such as turtles, nurse sharks, whale sharks, manta rays or dolphins!
Sunset Dolphin Cruises
You also have the option of enjoying a private dolphin cruise and certain resorts will provide such excursions which are ideal to experience during sunset. The kids are bound to love the chance to see wild spinner dolphins swimming happily in the Indian Ocean and if they’re lucky, even view them perform ‘acrobatics’ in the water!
Private Island Picnics
You can also enjoy quality family time on a private island, the perfect spot for a lovely picnic; some resorts offer access to such small islands that you can reach by boat or kayak. You can look forward to just doing what you want, be it lazing in the sand, playing games, snorkelling or flying kites, followed by a beachside BBQ.
