Maldives Cruise

1. Kumadu
Start the morning with a dive into the ocean by a one-hour sail to the middle of the atoll. Where you will swim with gentle giant sea turtles. After a dance with the turtles, enjoy lunch and sail to the north tip of the Atoll to a remote sandbank of Kumadu to anchor. Watch as the sun sets while eating canapés and sparkling wine before a four-course dinner on board, beneath the stars. Wake up to freshly baked croissants, muffins, and coffee so good it could have been brewed by a professional. Choose from the selection of aquatic activities: stand-up paddleboarding to the sandbank, sustainable fishing, surfing the outer breaks, or snorkeling the reef. Explore the underwater marine life with the SEABOB, or head to the sandbank for snorkeling and sunbathing. You can then dine onboard or have a picnic lunch on the sandbank before kayaking, surfing, or fun-tubing the afternoon away. Unwind after a day in the Indian Ocean with a foot massage and cocktails, then end the night with dinner onboard.

2. Maduwari
To GaaViligili Island. Lunch is served under the sails, followed by a complimentary hour-long massage as we pass deserted islands and a mosaic of blue tones. We stop in a protected anchorage, followed by stand-up paddleboarding or kayaking to a deserted island. If the surf is good, you can catch some waves with the surf instructor as the sun sets. Dinner will be served onboard. The Galley serves up breakfast onboard before the crew gets hearts pumping with boom swings into the sea below, or our surf instructor can take you to a well-known surfing spot nearby.

3. Goidhoo Lagoon
Lift the anchor to cruise to the tranquil waters of the Goidhoo Lagoon. Eat underneath the open sails. Make daily choices between the Jacuzzi or a spa treatment. Anchor near the deserted Innafushi Island, which is surrounded by small sandbanks. Snorkel to a sandbank to soak up the sun. Stretch tired muscles and clear the mind with yoga on the deck before breakfast. Explore the island of Goidhoo with a hike to the freshwater lake to see the unique biodiversity of the area. Use the Dolphin Gliver to swim along among a pod of dolphins, to truly feel at one with the ocean. Meet the locals and even play a friendly football match! Snorkel the Rose Garden to see the unique coral formations there. Fish with a local fisherman who knows all the best spots, or hunt for the lost treasure of the Corbin, a ship that met its demise off the coast of Innafushi more than 400 years ago while carrying a cargo of silver. If you caught a fish during the day, the Head Chef would be more than happy to prepare your catch. Snorkel with the manta rays that frequent the cleaning stations within the Goidhoo lagoon and might even spot a whale shark. Windsurfing across the lagoon or surfing the reef pass on perfect waves. Embrace the castaway life with dinner on a deserted sandbank with nothing but the stars overhead. End nights gazing up at the stars from the flybridge, the crew will even pull out blankets so that you can sleep beneath the night sky.

4. Duravandu
Cruise north to Angafaru Lagoon. Use the trawling rods to catch tuna. Once we drop anchor in the lagoon, it is time for stand-up paddleboarding or kayaking to a sandbank for some relaxation in the sun. Sunsets are a perfect opportunity to go on a guided snorkeling trip to see reefs come to life by the light of the moon. You might be lucky enough to see the bioluminescent plankton that adds a special kind of magic to the sea. Dinner is served onboard.
