8D/7N Central Maldives

7 nights of private charter on full board. Visits to wonderful sand-strips, genuine local islands, the capital Male, the underwater marine reserves of Guraidhoo and Myaru Kandu, the shark's points of Kandhooma Thila, Myaru and Gaahuraa Kandu, the colorful caves of Foththeyo and Mulak Kandu.

This cruise touches two of the most remote and uninhabited atolls of the Maldives: Vaavu and Meemu. The eastern side of Vaavu is one of the most popular choices for cruising boats in all seasons. There are many reasons: short stretches of open ocean - easy to cross during any monsoon - separate the atoll from Male; navigation is effortless throughout the year; the diving and snorkeling sites are among the most worthwhile in the archipelago; there are only two resorts and therefore little tourist traffic, and lastly the eastern tip of the atoll is one of the points with an abundance of fish on a par with anywhere in the archipelago during the dry monsoon. There are little less than 10 miles of the Vattaru Kandu which separate the atolls of Vaavu and Meemu.

Ari Atoll | 8D/7N

South Male, North and South Ari, North Male

This cruise explores one of the most famous atolls of the Maldives, Ari or Alifu atoll, with its several places of interests. Fenfushi is without doubt a must for those in search of the fundamental aspects of Maldivian tradition. The inhabitants were skilful sculptors and carvers of coral and their art is still to be seen on the finely decorated walls of the island’s mosque and the tombstones in the nearby cemetery. Another place of interest in Ari atoll is the village of Dhangethi. The island has two giant ficus benjamina, a tree originally from South-East Asia, with a straight, slim trunk which is flexible and elegant with very thick foliage. On older trees the branches develop column-like, overhead roots which are used to distribute the weight of the foliage, which extends horizontally to an enormous extent once the tree reaches maturity. These roots are still used today by the locals to make masts and booms for their boats, thanks to their resistance and flexibility. Several deserted islands are suitable for a good swim and some excellent snorkeling. These include: Innafushi, Bulhaalhohi and Hurasdhoo.
