Recreational Activities: If you venture beyond the pampered realm of your villa and the wonderfully slow Maldivian pace of life, you'll find a wealth of recreational diversions.

After all, this is a paradise renowned for superlative fishing, sailing, diving and snorkeling. If you prefer, sit in the shallow waters and watch the myriad of exotic schools of fish dart in and out of the light, or visit the Health & fitness room.

Enjoy a canoe ride with your partner or let our guide take you both on a leisurely catamaran ride. For more vigorous workouts, head for the resort's health & fitness room. And for the less actively inclined, a ramble around Malé exploring its sights and shopping, or a promenade along the beach are just as rousing. If the sun gets to you, simply retire to breezy Naboli bar for board games or some quiet reading.
