Dhonis are old-fashioned and incredibly romantic. You can ride these when you're in Maldives because it is the main mode of transportation among most people. You can book yourself a private dhoni and spend some quality time with your partner. Sail away to the ocean and be secluded with your loved one while watching the sunset over the Indian Ocean. It is one of the most romantic things you can do while you're in Maldives. Also, you can ask your hotel to book you a romantic dinner on a dhoni. You must experience these boats while you're on this beautiful island.
The bio-diversity of the sea near Maldives cannot be compared to any other. The coral reefs, sharks, turtles, manta rays and more kinds of fish can be seen underwater. You can experience the sea life by scuba diving or snorkelling in any part of the world. If you decide to spend your honeymoon in Maldives, you can book a room which is located underwater.

Nothing beats having a room underwater, then having your own bungalow over the ocean. There are many resorts such as Velassaru Maldives where you can get yourself an overwater bungalow or cabin. You can enjoy the privacy, wake up to the sounds of the ocean and enjoy the crystal-clear waters beneath your feet. This is one of the most common options of honeymooners and none of them goes home disappointed. Try this to truly experience the beauty of Maldives.

Nothing beats spending all day with your partner walking on a white sandy beach while the azure waters crash into the shore.
The glow beach has to be the most romantic and magical place in Maldives. Just like in fairy tales, there are blue glittery 'lights' along the beach. There are actually a plankton species which glow when water is contacted. Spending the night in this beautiful beach is a dream come true. Don't forget to take photos of this unique phenomenon as it is a memory to treasure.
