When the Maldives comes up as a holiday destination, bet the first thing that comes into your mind is that it is a spot for honeymooners. Still, recently, the Maldives has been growing as a family destination as well where you can travel and have plenty of fun with kids. Here are a few reasons to plan out your next family trip to the Maldives.
Getting to the Maldives is just one big adventure! Not only kids but adults too find it quite interesting as the plane begins its descent to Male island. The view from above is brilliant and gives you the feeling that you are landing in the sea itself! From here, the resort islands are quite close by. You can opt for a short boat ride to the resort if your Maldives overwater villa is relatively far off, then its best to take a seaplane ride to the spot.
The kids are sure to love those endless shorelines and crystal-clear waters in which marine life thrives. Snorkelling is an activity loved by many kids, however, in the Maldives, they need to be able to swim well for this activity. If your kids are younger, there are still other options available for them to explore close to the shores and have some fun. A boat rides out to sea to watch the dolphins also prove to be a great family activity to do here.
When it comes to the Maldives, private villas with private beaches are an option. The kids will have their very own beach to run around and play while enjoying the serenity around. Overwater villas like those at VARU by Atmosphere will be ideal if you have older kids. They'll love jumping off straight into the ocean from the villa. The kids would like to ride bikes to breakfast and other small activities available at the resort itself.
When selecting your resort, it is important to find out more about the activities available at the property. Not all hotels are the same here in the Maldives. Some focus on a colourful coral reef to explore, some focus on diving and others on the best surf break. Kids will enjoy club activities like Dhoni rides on a treasure hunt and learning about the various corals on the shores. For the adults, you are sure to enjoy the heavenly spas, yoga sessions, cooking classes and much more.
The Maldives has some of the most unique dining experience you'll ever find. The underwater restaurants are the main attraction when it comes to dining in style. Other options are private dining by the beach and buffet dining as well. When it comes to food, the Maldives has a variety to suit any palate. Give the local food a go and you are sure to love it!
