For the little VIPs, a variety of creative, educational and sports activities are organized for children of all ages, along with a pirate snorkeling adventure. Many island adventures are also planned such as treasure hunts, a night exploration and a flashlight scavenger hunt.

DJ Cayetano will be on the decks of Chill Bar this season, creating magical sunset moments every evening.

For those seeking to explore more of what the Maldives have to offer, there are plenty of off-island excursion options available. Whether this be hopping on a boat to experience life on a nearby local island or having a deserted island to yourselves for a day, the boat captains are ready to take you there. It is a great time for families to get together and spend some quality time.

But guests don’t have to always stay on land. The underwater world on the surrounding reefs can be discovered during snorkeling and diving excursions. Guests can experience a variety of water sports and will be also challenged in water-polo and volleyball games by the resort’s hosts. At Six Senses Laamu the clear and starry skies away from the city lights are truly spectacular. Guests who are fascinated by the universe with its stars, planets, comets and moon can join Astronomer Dr. Parag for stargazing sessions on sunset beach in the evenings. He will also be offering sun gazing sessions in the mornings.
