A cluster of tiny islands cocooned by the shimmering waters of the Indian Ocean and dreamy azure skies, the Maldives beckons not only those seeking solitude and romance but also families with kids to the gorgeous private beaches with well-appointed overwater villas to savour unforgettable holidays.
There is absolutely no doubt that the little ones are going to love a dolphin-watching excursion just as much as any adult would! If you do plan on taking the excursion, most resorts in the Maldives offer you the option to head out to sea on either a traditional dhoni boat or a speedboat, the choice is yours. Set off on the adventure with a trained guide and look forward to the friendliest creature of the ocean following your boat and bow riding for your entertainment. This would be one of the best things to do in Maldives when holidaying with family.
With a variety of water sports being possible in the Maldives most families love to venture out and indulge in adventure or have fun to create those unforgettable moments. Most resorts are geared to provide motorized and non-motorized water sports for their discerning customers. Canoe rides, pedalos (for 2 or 4 people), jet skiing (with a guide) and flyboarding are just a few of the water sports enjoyed by families at properties like Grand Park Kodhipparu Maldives.
Holidaying in the Maldives, an archipelago richly blessed with coral reefs is an ideal opportunity to expose your kids to the beauty of the underwater world. With an abundance of marine life thriving among the corals let your children have a glimpse of them by planning a snorkel safari during your holiday. It will be an uplifting experience to watch their awe and inspiration in seeing the marine life and the beauty of the corals.
Let your children take part in games and activities and revel in the company of other children during their stay in the Maldives. They can visit the special kids’ clubs which keep the young and important guests happy and engaged during the day. Usually between 8 am till 8 pm and babysitting facilities for kids between 3 to 12 years will be provided on request.
Pick out one day for a relaxing picnic lunch by a secluded, serene sand bank at your local resort. Spend some quality family time together while enjoying the beauty of the white sand and cerulean waters. Don't forget to capture a few amazing moments on camera so that the joy of the day lasts even when you get back home.
Meal time is always the best time when it comes to kids. So why not explore some of the resort's restaurants with the little ones? Don't forget to enjoy freshly grilled seafood, one of the most recommended dishes to try when you visit the Maldives.
