DREAM DIVE
White Tip and Gray Reef sharks, Hawksbill turtles, Dog Tooth Tuna, Napoleon fish, schools of Blue Stripe snappers, Bat fish and Fusilier fish, Barracuda and Eagle and Manta rays have all been spotted at Maldivian Dive Sites just 15 minutes off the island.

WATER PLAY
For speed demons, power boating and jet skiing is on offer. Water skiing, surfing, parasailing, big game fishing, wake and knee boarding await the adventurous.

CORAL NURSERIES
Since 2012, the resident marine biology team at our Eco Beach resort has taken naturally broken pieces of coral and planted them in the island’s lagoon, in areas where the corals flourish. What exists now is a little world under the water that is monitored and measured over time. Guests are invited to build on this and add their name or a dedication to the structure – leaving an important environmental legacy for the future.

DOLPHIN DELIGHT
Our wild Dolphin friends are never far away. They’re easy to spot as they play in the morning sun and bask in the warm evening sun. Morning cruises on select days will take you to see the Spinner dolphins perform their happy acrobatics. Closer to the island, Bottlenose dolphins leap over the wake of the boats. On very rare occasions, Risso’s dolphins are spotted near the island. In November 2015, a pod was seen. These majestic creatures are as dazzling as they are enigmatic.

BE GUIDED BY THE MARINE BIOLOGIST
By taking a personal guided tour with a marine biologist, your Maldives Nature Experience will be so much richer. Learn all about the different species that live in the waters around us. See the myriad characterful, colourful reef fish and the much-spotted timid Blacktip reef sharks, amid some of the best snorkelling spots around the island.

WITH THE GARDEN CHEF
In the middle of the island is a special spot for our chefs; their very own garden where fresh basil, rosemary, eggplant, Scotch bonnet chilli and a selection of other herbs and vegetables are grown. Once a week, you can experience a signature Maldivian dinner at the garden, with our chefs taking you through each course as they explain the inspiration behind the exclusive menu. Make new friends and learn more about traditional Maldivian cuisine as you toast to tastes you have never encountered before.

BEACH BARBECUE
Twice a week, on Conch Bar beach, as the sun sets, our chefs cook up a stunning feast over fire. Your senses will be seduced by the unmistakable aroma of grilling seafood, reef fish, prawns, cuttlefish, chicken, steak. The diverse selection of sides and salads will perfect your plate, and the dessert table never fails to impress.

SILVER SCREEN UNDER THE STARS
Join us on the beach for our weekly cinema night when the big screen goes up, and guests watch classics and new releases in style and comfort. Or, for a special screening, we can create you your own cinema on the beach complete with popcorn, drinks and our gorgeously comfortable beach-bag chairs.

EMBUDHOO ESCAPE
For the Robinson Crusoes among you, Embudhoo escape is an opportunity to do something that few can say they have done. Embudhoo is our private deserted island. Just 15 minutes away from Coco Palm, it’s home to a single traditional hut. Rustic and romantic, running away to this exclusive retreat for a few hours or an overnight stay is both a thrill and a privilege. Our chefs will prepare picnics so that your time on Embudhoo is delicious. Barbecues and group celebrations can also be arranged on Embudhoo, for the ultimate private party.

SUNSET CRUISE
Hop onboard one of our hand-crafted Dhoni and cruise around the island as the sun sets. With the iconic curl of the boat’s black bow leading the way, the gentle waters, slow pace, Champagne and canapés combine to create a dreamy pre-dinner date. Join groups on select days or request a private cruise for that extra luxurious touch.

CATCHING DINNER
In one of our Maldivian Dhonis, you can join our island fishing crew for an exciting Maldives attraction as they sail to a nearby spot to fish for our restaurants. Your catch will be prepared by our chefs exactly to your liking and served that evening for dinner. This experience can be shared with a group in the afternoon or at sunset on select days. Alternatively, you can hire the boat and crew for a morning or big game fishing adventure.

WELLNESS
The healing properties of tropical plants and their fruits are harnessed to bring genuine refreshment to our guests. Our luxury spa includes five ambient rooms that host treatments inspired by ancient Indonesian, Thai and Indian Ayurvedic techniques. Boosted by products with over 50 years of experience, the Thalgo range of products are the undisputed expert in thalassotherapy. A Spice Bath ritual is a unique wellness treatment experience. Sip on a local Kurumba drink while taking a soothing soak in hot water infused with fresh ginger, lime, lemongrass, galangal and betel leaf. This removes impurities from the skin and promotes cellular renewal.

Perhaps our signature wellness treatment, Journey to the Maldives, will take you to another level of relaxation. Local virgin coconut oil is poured over seashells that are used to gently yet deeply relieve muscle tension. A fully-equipped gym awaits guests who like to keep up the good work and, nestled in the foliage, our yoga pavilion invites reconnection of mind, body and soul.

BEACH BAR
Our Maldives Beachside Bar is placed on the island’s vast western beach to offer the ultimate sunset experience. From here, with the Indian Ocean stretching out in front of you, watching the sun and its evening glow slowly sink below the horizon line inspires guests to take the time to ponder the astonishing workings of the universe.

Slip into one of the deck chairs or sunshades dotted around the bar, order, sink your toes deep into the sand and let nature do the rest. The beachside bar menu showcases both tropical creativity and old favourites. Magic Moment was created for a couple that has visited us every year since 2000. Its blend of vodka, Midori melon liqueur, and lime juice perfectly captures the essence of the island. An Aperol Spritz puts the orange of the sunset in your drink.

CONCH BAR
Under cover of a high, thatched pavilion with powdery white sand underfoot, Conch, our Maldives Bar & Café is an effortlessly chic spot for a coffee, light lunch or delicious cocktail. Positioned within the greenery on the southwest tip of the island, our deepest beach is your beautiful view.

Conch Bar is loved for its easy mood. Guests tell the time by how they feel not by the clock. When hungry, it’s time to enjoy the vitality of our salads, the juiciness of our flame-grilled burgers, or the enticing Mediterranean verve of our pasta dishes. When thirsty, freshly-squeezed juices, long coolers or something stronger are available throughout the afternoon and into the evening. On select nights, live bands play at our Maldives Bar & Café as the sky transforms from blue through tangerine to deep indigo.

CORNUS
The flavours, textures, colours and vibrant spirit of Asian cuisine is Cornus’ passion. The sense of touch is awakened by the soft sand underfoot both inside and out in the green dappled shade. The senses of taste and smell are seduced by the fresh delicacies from China, India, Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia’s finest dishes. 

The senses of sight and hearing are equally captivated by the turquoise sea in view and the sound of palms swaying in the soft breeze as you enjoy our decadent Maldives Asian Cuisine. Connected to the Beach Bar by a sandy pathway through the garden, a pre or post dinner drink is a natural choice.

COWRIE
Tucked away in the deep green of our island’s flourishing plant life, just moments from our largest beach, our extremely spacious Dhuni Kolhu Buffet, Cowrie is open for all-day dining. Inside, although you are dining under an extraordinary, high thatched roof, the open pavilion sides make your meal feel like an open-air affair, accompanied by the sweet scent of Maldivian flowers.

Cowrie, our Dhuni Kolhu Buffet, is the embodiment of culinary art. Breakfast is a faithful tribute to the world’s different ways to start the day. From sashimi to porridge, the spread and quality is such that you’ll find your favourite or be tempted to try something new. Lunch offers a selection of fresh and delicious salads, breads and cold plates and desserts plus hot dishes cooked in full view as our chefs work their magic in the open central kitchen. Dinners are themed to celebrate the exceptional cuisines of Asia with Friday night being Maldivian night. At each of these feasts, our chefs present and serve a stunning centre piece such as whole grilled tuna from the day’s catch.
