UNDERWATER QUEST

Set sail on a local dhoni to discover the

secrets of the Maldives underwater

world. Snorkel alongside reef sharks,

turtles, parrot and lionfish. See if you

can find Nemo, the orange and white

Maldives anemone fish.

MANTA MADNESS (SEASONAL)

During manta season, be wowed by

the alien-like yet gentle mantas as they

glide through the water feeding on

plankton. Mantas rays can grow up to

several meters in length and a manta

encounter is something to remember

for a lifetime

CRUSOE LUNCH

Be a cast away on a private sandbank

(an isolated strip of sand surrounded

by nothing but the wide ocean) and

marvel at the turquoise panorama as

you tuck into a delicious freshly

prepared picnic basket. Then work on

your sun tan and splash around in the

sea to cool off.

SHIPWRECK PICNIC

The blissful atmosphere of the

uninhabited island is the perfect

romantic setting for a scrumptious

picnic prepared by the Islandway Etos

superb chef. Listen to the sounds of

nature as you sit under a shady

coconut tree then swim in a tranquil

lagoon.

DOLPHIN DETECTIVES

Set out on a cruise to try and spot the

ever-popular dolphins. Help the crew

scour the waves for signs of the

beautiful, friendly creatures. Dolphins

are attracted to sound and to the

waves created by boats, so if you’re in

with a ‘go’, there is a good chance of

finding some.

SUN CHASERS

Just before sun set, a boat heads out

to sea for a peaceful cruise in order to

find the best spot to watch the

spectacular natural display. As you

watch the sky turn red, gold, pink and

purple, sip on chilled drinks and listen

to the soft sound of the waves.

NIGHT FISHING

the spectacular sunset while dropping

a hand line near a reef or an ideal

fishing spot where grouper, snapper,

skipjack and barracuda are abound.

Experience the satisfaction of catching

and cooking your own catch.
