Fun Activities to Do in Maldives for Adults and Kids—Islands of Fun

Private island resorts in the Maldives are designed to make you feel relaxed, and if you are an adult looking to rejuvenate your mind, body and soul, look no further than the holistic wellness centre of your Maldives resort. The world-class spas at beach resorts in Maldives offer top-notch treatments from traditional methods to the latest in aromatherapy and more. Go ahead and book a session, as a couple or solo, and give into the pure bliss of relaxing at the aesthetically pleasing centres facing the gorgeous Indian Ocean or a lush tropical garden. Some popular resorts like Baros Maldives even have off-shore platforms at sea for relaxing yoga and meditation sessions that guarantee to help you reset your mind and body.

Give into the pleasure of dining in your favourite spot in the Maldives; a sandbar in the middle of the Indian Ocean, a romantic tropical garden just outside your Maldives villa, on the beach under the stars or perhaps even an off-shore platform where music and a five-star meal will make you feel special. Destination dining is another fun activity for adults to enjoy a Maldives romantic dinner in style. Simply ask your resort about making arrangements and they will be happy to cater to your needs.

Snorkelling is one of the best things to do in Maldives for adults and kids and only requires basic swimming skills with sparse equipment—a mask, fins, and snorkel. You can take along your own, or rent them. Since most private island resorts are surrounded by a house reef, a short swim is all needed to start exploring the verdant and colourful reefs, teeming with all types of marine life from cute little fish to turtles and even friendly dolphins who enjoy interacting with swimmers.

Perfect for wide-eyed kids and adults, these tours are very popular activities in Maldives. Pods of dolphins frequent the waters surrounding the islands and are a thrill to observe. Ask your resort about booking a tour and enjoy an unforgettable experience as your vessel comes up alongside the pods, that never fail to put on an acrobatic show, flipping and jumping in the water. Choose an eco-friendly tour that offers responsible excursions, taking care to not disrupt the delicate balance of nature or interfere with the marine life in their natural habitat.

Book a sailing tour, and enjoy the experience. Relish the feeling of skimming along the ocean with the wind puffing out a traditional dhoni's sails as you relax and unwind. There is plenty of action to be enjoyed on these cruises; choose from a sunset cruise to those offering reef snorkelling and swimming in hidden bays. The vessels are equipped with sundecks where you can chill and work on your tan as well as airconditioned bedrooms and a lounge for savouring luxurious cruise.
