The Maldives is one of the most tranquil and scenic nations in the world. For those of you who enjoy the after hours, these are the top things to do at night in the Maldives;
The Maldives is known for being home to a thriving hospitality industry, and thus, boasts of some of the most exquisite beachside restaurants in the region. The dining experiences that these restaurants offer at night are simply divine, and especially cater to making your night magical and intimate. With the starry sky above your head, the soft sand on your feet, the cool breeze of the Indian Ocean fanning you, and the flavors and aromas of the dishes treating your senses, the night time beach dining experience is assured to be one of your most memorable experiences while in the Maldives. Most luxury island resorts in the Maldives, such as the Maalifushi by COMO, Maldives, also offer private beach dinners for all occasions.
One of the most amazing features of the Maldives is that most of the islands are quiet and peaceful, giving its visitors a truly blissful and secluded feeling. Therefore, just walking on the beaches while absorbing the tranquil ambiance and scenic beauty, is one of the simple activities enjoyed by many. But the experience of walking on the beach is enhanced to levels of absolute enchantment and serenity at night. As you walk down the beaches with just the moonlight to shine you a path and the hauntingly beautiful sounds of the crashing waves, you can experience the true enchantment and serenity of the islands. Walking on the beach at night with your partner or family is therefore a great way to discover each other and create memories together.
It is a well known fact that the waters of the Maldives are abundant with marine life. Therefore, fishing, as an activity is very popular in the Maldives. If you are a fishing enthusiast and dreamed of an overnight fishing tour, then the Maldives is the place for you. Night time fishing is immensely popular in the Maldives, and is one of the most exciting night time activities. Even if you don’t like fishing, it is highly recommended that you try this out as being out on the ocean in the night with the moonlight and stars reflecting off the deep blue waters is one heck of a mesmerizing experience! You can expect to catch a variety of fish at night, and the added bonus is that whatever you catch can be your next meal.
Truth be told, the Maldives doesn’t have much of nightlife. But that doesn’t mean that there is no place that you can visit to chill with some music and a few cocktails. For example, the Underwater Nightclub at Nimaya and the Underground Nightclub on Fesdu Island are two of the most unique nightclubs that you could possibly visit. In addition to this there quite a few bars and lounges that you can visit as well such as the Chill Bar, Handhvaru Lounge, Sky Bar, Water Village Bar, Babuna Bar, and The Deck Bar. Thus, while you won’t come across a raving nightlife scene at the Maldives, you can still find a few places to chill out and enjoy the afterhours.
