Maldives - Seaplane Trip

Scattered off the southern tip of India lie the 2000 or so tiny islands that constitute the Maldives. These “pearls of the Indian Ocean” represent the most definitive desert island hideaways on the planet. Perfect to escape the mounting pressures of modern life. With 88 resorts where each island equals one hotel, it’s time to get busy doing nothing. Of course if you wish to visit more than one island a seaplane trip will be necessary. You will take off in a lagoon and land in another – quite an exhilarating and unique experience! Then you will be whisked off to paradise in a dhoni, a traditional Maldivian boat. Once you reach your destination crash under the blazing tropical sun on virgin white sandy beaches adorned with towering coconut palms. The beaches are never overcrowded and the horizon is punctuated with the lush tropical greenery of neighbouring islands. Anyone crazy enough to need a break from the beach might try snorkelling or diving amongst the intricate coral reefs surrounding the islands.
