The Maldives Must Do

Are you already picturing the blue waters and thatch-roof huts? No, look down and start dreaming!


Tucked in a quiet corner of the Indian Ocean is an idyllic chain of islands known as the Maldives. Known for its abundance of luxurious resorts and stunning natural beauty, the Maldives has earned its spot on most traveler’s bucket lists. However, the question remains, what do you do when you get to the Maldives? Aside from soaking up the sun, here are six must-have experiences while in this tropical paradise.


Private Beach Picnic

If you are looking for peace, quiet, and a unique experience, then a private beach picnic is just the thing for you. Enjoy a delicious gourmet meal prepared by a local chef as you sit back and enjoy your tranquil surroundings.


Snorkeling and Diving

Snorkeling and diving in the Maldives is an absolute must. The crystal clear turquoise waters provide you with excellent visibility. The abundance of reefs around the island will dazzle you with their collection of colorful and exotic fish.


Dhoni Sunset Cruise

Dhoni is a traditional Maldivian boat that makes it the perfect vessel for a sunset cruise. Watch the sun setting over the horizon as you cruise around the islands. If you are lucky, you may even spot some spinner dolphins swimming by.


Try Mas Huni

For the traveler who is looking to experience the local flavor, mas huni is just the dish. This is a traditional Maldivian breakfast made of finely chopped tuna, onion, coconut, and chili. While it is a far cry from eggs and bacon, you might be surprised by how much you enjoy the tangy and fresh flavor of mas huni.


Dance along to the Boduberu

The Boduberu is a traditional Maldivian exhibition consisting of rhythmic drumming, singing, and dancing. The atmosphere around the performance is exhilarating and will give you a feel for the local culture and traditions.


Party it up on the island of Finolhu

Teeming with a fun, yet laid back, retro charm, Finolhu offers guests a refreshing twist on the standard Maldivian holiday. This tiny island is known for attracting famous DJs worldwide to host beach parties throughout the year. If you ever need a change of pace while on vacation in the Maldives, then Finolhu is the place to go.
