About this package
Who the Island Explorer Package is for
Best for active travellers, friends and couples who like to be out on the water.
The Island Explorer Package is for travellers who would rather be out on the water than lying by a pool. On your first full day a boat takes you out to float above calm nurse sharks with a guide beside you, look for turtles and finish on a sandbank.
Next comes the zipline over the lagoon and a beach dinner on Vahmaafushi, then an evening of traditional Maldivian line fishing as the sun sets. There is also a free drone photography session, so you go home with pictures of yourself on that impossible blue water.
Every night you come back to Tropic Tree Maldives on Gulhi, a few minutes’ walk from Bikini Beach.
