Unlike most beaches in the archipelagic nation of Maldives, the slice of beach on the Vaadhoo Island in the Raa Atoll isn't meant to sip on cocktails and bask in the sun. Instead, it is one that is to be enjoyed once the sun goes down. As the darkness descends upon the stunning archipelago, the bioluminescence plankton that inhabits the waters of the Raa Atoll wash up on the shores of Vaadhoo Island, creating a dreamlike sea of stars. After a day of revelling in the glories of the gorgeous South Asian islands, hop on a boat and head to Vaadhoo Island to treat yourself to an intimate evening as you lay your eyes on the mind-blowing glow-in-the-dark natural phenomenon.
