Snorkel or dive at the best house reef in the Maldives, home to hundreds of tropical fish, Hawksbill Turtles, Nurse and Reef Sharks, Spotted Eagle Rays, and Jacks, just to name a few of the local inhabitants. Experienced instructors, first class rental equipment, comfortable dhonis and reef dive sites cater for both beginners and experienced explorers. In glass-bottomed kayaks, guests can follow the edge of the reef fringing the island for some of the best over water views of the oceanic life thriving in their natural habitat.

With six restaurants and bars, each offering a distinctive setting, menu and ambiance that divulges a different view of paradise, families are spoiled for choice when it comes to dining. Nowhere is this more spectacular than at SEA, the resort's signature underwater restaurant and wine cellar. Whether at breakfast, lunch or dinner, all the family will be entranced and entertained by the diverse marine life playing hide-and-seek amongst the coral reefs.

As the sun sets, the night sky comes alive under a canopy of a thousand stars. Discover the secrets of the universe with stargazing encounters led by the resort's SKY Guru, or simply spend time together enjoying a movie outdoors on the wide screen with a Cinema Under the Stars movie choice.
