One of the most sought-after places to visit in Maldives is the mesmerizing starlit sea located in Vaadhoo Island. This beach glows at night because of the bioluminescent aquatic microbes called phytoplankton that light up the sea’s shoreline in the most magical manner. The island is located around 8 km away from Male, the capital city of Maldives and the main airport. You can hire a speedboat to get to this dreamland, which takes around 15 minutes. 

4. Indulge in different dishes along with the fishes in the Ithaa Undersea Restaurant

You can scuba dive and sift the depths of the reef or you can get a view from the leading and snorkel above the reef top.

8. Dolphin spotting

The Maldives is also home to a lot of mass rapists, I mean dolphins. The island offers many boat tours that take you out to the dolphins and the boat captains will tell you everything you may need to know about the dolphins, and they also keep a safe distance, allowing you to get great views, without disturbing them.

9. Drive a Sea bob water sled and hydro-powered jet blades

If you want to play with a luxurious seatoy just for the heck of it, you can take the plunge with the Seabob water sled (essentially a one-man submarine-meets-scooter) that allows you to move dolphin-like beneath the surface of the water. Four Seasons Kuda Huraa and Finolhu offers use of the underwater gadgets, plus — for an extra adrenaline rush — hydro-powered jetblades, which propel adrenaline-junkies out of the water.

10. Have a great trip and as much as possible don’t use air-conditioning and just rely on ocean breeze and remember to take your used batteries and plastic bottles home with you. At least 90 islands have disappeared so far, due to natural erosion and rising sea levels caused by global warming. Every small action nudges the world to a better path. An accumulation of small acts can change the world. Let’s all do our part. We simply must.
