Day by day

  1. Day 1: Arrive Malé — Transfer to the Resort

    The resort team meets you at Velana International Airport. A seaplane or speedboat out to the island, depending on the atoll. Check in and spend the rest of the day on the beach. Overnight at the resort.

    Stay: Adaaran Prestige Vadoo, or similar or similar

  2. Day 2: House Reef Snorkelling

    A guided snorkel on the house reef in the morning, when the water is calmest. Reef fish, turtles and small reef sharks are common sightings. The afternoon is free. Overnight at the resort.

    Stay: Adaaran Prestige Vadoo, or similar or similar

  3. Day 3: Sandbank Picnic & Sunset Dolphin Cruise

    A boat out to a sandbank for a picnic lunch with nobody else around. Back for a rest, then a sunset cruise looking for spinner dolphins. Dinner on the beach. Overnight at the resort.

    Stay: Adaaran Prestige Vadoo, or similar or similar

  4. Day 4: Spa & Leisure

    Nothing is planned today on purpose. A spa treatment, a kayak or paddleboard, or a dive if you are certified. A private dinner can be set up on the beach or the jetty. Overnight at the resort.

    Stay: Adaaran Prestige Vadoo, or similar or similar

  5. Day 5: Departure

    A last swim and breakfast, then the seaplane or speedboat back to Malé for the flight home. Seaplanes only fly in daylight, so we match the transfer to your flight time.
