Want to make a holiday to the Maldives stand out? Here are some distinctive things to do that will make your getaway truly unforgettable.
Night Snorkelling
While snorkelling in Maldives is something everyone looks forward to, you can expect a whole new perspective of the world beneath the waves when you explore it at night! Such escapades are on offer from resorts like Velassaru Maldives that take you on guided night snorkelling adventures where you can spot sleeping fish, moray eels, crayfish and more.
Picnics on Sandbanks
For the ultimate seclusion, you can plan a trip to a sandbank surrounded by the dazzling Indian Ocean. Amongst the most memorable things to do in Maldives island is to head to one of these sandbanks on a resort-organised excursion on a traditional dhoni (boat); you will also be provided with a luxury hamper to share an enchanting picnic with that special someone.
Sunset / Night Fishing
Apart from deep-sea fishing, you can also try traditional sunset or night fishing which provides a captivating experience. The journey begins on a dhoni and once you reach a particular area, you will learn the art of hand line fishing be it amidst a spellbinding sunset or when the stars come out to play; some resorts will even have your catch cooked for a delicious meal!
Renewal of Vows Ceremony
There’s nothing quite as romantic as having a renewal of vows ceremony in the Maldives right on the beach. Certain resorts offer special packages to make such celebrations of love more special like a decorated beach area, a traditional Maldivian Bodu Beru drum procession, a wedding cake, and a bottle of Taittinger champagne. It can even include a romantic beach dinner and a spa treatment for two.
