Dine under the Maldivian Waters
Gone are the days when dining by the shore was considered unique. Get ready to savour your meal with fishes swimming along at the Ithaa Undersea Restaurant at Conrad Maldives Rangali Island. Dine five meters below the surface of the ocean, in the world’s first undersea restaurant, with panoramic coral garden views and fusion menus matched with fine wines. Ithaa can be reserved for private dining, weddings and special occasions. The set lunch and dinner menu here showcase local Maldivian flavours intertwined with Western influences.
Adventure Across the Dunes of Abu Dhabi
Massive expanse of sand dunes send an exhilarating thrill in the body. Venture into this golden piece of land with Qasr Al Sarab Desert Resort by Anantara, where the thrill of discovery dances with luxury.
Explore the majestic Empty Quarter in a purpose built, range topping buggy. Guided throughout the tour, this Polaris Ride sends an adrenaline rush as you conquer the Liwa Desert. One can opt to hop into the specially-adapted 4×4 and let the guides take you on a scenic adventure through the dunes.
While camels are often synonymous with desert adventures, the resort offers a unique twist by providing guided horse riding experience across these stunning dunes.
Ride the Waves in Maldives
The waves of the ocean can be calming for some and exciting for others. Surfers seek the thrill that never ends, and Kuda Villingili provides the perfect base for that. Guests have direct access to one of the top
surfing spots in the Maldives, Chicken’s Break, the longest left-hand barrel in the Maldives, where a reef stretch produces over 10-second barrels.
Located at the northernmost break in North Male Atoll, Chicken’s Break gets its name from the island’s history as a poultry farm, giving it the unusual name. While professional surfers can unleash their adrenaline here, beginners can enjoy a beach lesson covering the basics of wave formation, or opt for a starter lesson with a private surf instructor at Baby Chickens.
Tea as a main course
Around 64% of the population in India consumes tea, but what if I told you that tea can be enjoyed in ways beyond just a beverage? The Tea-infused Dinner at Ceylon Tea Trails offers a signature culinary experience that brings together the subtle influences of tea flavours. Tea grown in various regions of Sri
Lanka has distinctly different flavour profiles, each lending a unique effect to the ingredients and methods of preparation.
The dishes here intricately blend the flavours of tea with traditional notes of the food. Imagine Earl Grey-cured fresh salmon, Moroccan Mint tea-crusted lamb cutlet, and vanilla panna cotta with minted fresh fruits and hibiscus tea sauce. These dishes are designed to appeal to both the intellectual curiosity and the palate of any gourmet.
Speed Thrills in the middle of an island
F1 is rapidly rising in popularity, with no signs of slowing down, sparking excitement in viewers who imagine themselves taking those exhilarating turns.
Kandima Maldives offers the perfect setting to turn that dreamy vision into reality. Fast Track, the first and largest professional-grade electric go-kart circuit in the Maldives, is the ultimate destination for thrill-seekers. Featuring twelve hair-raising turns and the region’s first electric karts, the track is designed to cater to everyone—from seasoned racers to families looking for fun. In line with sustainability, the electric karts, capable of reaching speeds up to 80 km/h, offer an eco-friendly, zero-emission experience.
Rope Your Way Into Adventure at Oman
Intense, adventurous, and Instagram-worthy—these words perfectly describe the cave adventures via Ferrata in Oman.
This experience, exclusive to Alila Jabal Akhdar, is not for the faint-hearted, but for those brave enough to step onto the 20-meter-high ropes and traverse the cave’s mouth. A few meters below the ridge lies a natural cave that stretches deep into the mountainside, offering you the chance to peek inside as you navigate the ropes across its entrance. This is a must-do for any visitor to Oman—an unforgettable adventure you won’t want to miss.
As 2024 comes to a close, these activities promise to deliver excitement and unforgettable moments, all while being surrounded with luxury.
