If you're thinking of finally taking that much-awaited family vacation, the Maldives is one of the countries that you should seriously consider as your destination. It's not only a honeymoon destination, but it also has many resorts that cater to children of all age groups.
From kayaking in the blue lagoons to activities such as kite surfing that get the adrenaline pulsating through your veins, the Maldives offer a tantalising array of water sports and activities, out of which you'd have a hard time picking one activity as each one promises the best. Many a Maldives family resort the likes of Reethi Faru Resort has an internationally certified panel of instructors that would ensure your safety throughout these sessions. They also have family-oriented activities such as banana rides and fun tubes where the whole family can roar in laughter as the speed boat topples everyone into the shallow waters of the lagoon.
Climb aboard a catamaran with your loved ones to embark on a scintillating adventure in the Arabian waters. The Maldives offers so much to discover with its myriad of islands. You can sail over to a nearby island or causeway for a small brunch in the morning while revelling in the tropical warmth of the ocean breeze. You can look forward to visiting a local village and experiencing their culture, and if you're lucky, you'd even be able to taste a dish that is prepared by a local family. On the way, take part in an authentic Maldivian fishing experience to put an end to a perfect day by bringing your catch back to the resort to be prepared for dinner.
Bring that perfect beach getaway to life by renting out a property near a sparkling lagoon. What better way to while away your holiday dreams other than lying in a beach hammock, slowly rocking away to the rhythm of the sea breeze while breathing in the salty air! Many resorts in the Maldives offer the ultimate luxury of making your dreams come to life by offering you charming villas that open up to scenic lagoons. You can let the kids play on the banks to their hearts' content while you experience the joys of paradise when you choose to holiday at this paradisiacal archipelago.
Spending a vacation in the Maldives isn't complete if you don't explore its exquisite marine wonderland. Snorkelling is a must-have experience by anyone who sets their feet in this piece of heaven. It's even suitable for families that have kids over six years. The out-of-this-world adventure that you'd have beneath the water surface as a family would make you connect with each other and feel closer like never before. Snorkelling above the colourful coral reefs that are brimming with vibrant reef fish is an enchanting experience that you would remember until your last breath.
With stunningly beautiful views of the sunset, the food you eat is guaranteed to blow your sense of taste when you opt to dine at overwater bars in the Maldives. That being said, it isn't just food from the local cuisine that you can experience in these places, but a variety of delicacies that offer everything from grilled seafood to Japanese Teppanyaki that would surely perform wonders on your tastebuds. A feast to all five senses, dining at over water bars isn't an experience that comes too often in one's lifetime.
