Rediscover the thrill of travel in 2021 with an adrenaline-fuelled tropical holiday like no other in the Maldives!

Kandima Maldives, the game-changing active lifestyle destination, has launched its coolest new skydiving programme in partnership with Skydive Maldives.

Imagine a jaw-dropping free-fall from 12,000 feet in the air at incredible speeds, and views of the pristine islands surrounded by limitless blue ocean as you safely parachute down to Kandima Maldives.

Adventure enthusiasts can capture every moment of this experience of a lifetime!

Ready to skydive the K’way?

Get into your jumpsuit, strap on your goggles, board the aircraft and experience the ultimate adrenaline booster! This sums up the swanky new sky diving experience with Kandima Maldives, a must-do activity when staying at the resort.

Upon arrival at the Dhaalu Airport, guests are greeted by the skydiving team and take a 15-minute safety briefing before hopping aboard a specially modified Cessna 208 seaplane.

After 20 minutes of flight time, guests launch into the sky at an altitude of around 12,000 feet with an experienced skydiving instructor.

After a-minute long free-fall at extreme speeds of 200km per hour, the parachute opens and a five-minute descent later, guests safely land at the secluded beach on Kandima Maldives.

Take the (tandem) leap, capture your skydive on video

Tandem skydiving is the quickest and easiest way to experience the thrill of a free fall. Take the leap with qualified skydiving instructors and capture the best views of the blue Maldivian islands and coral reefs!

Guests can request for video footage of their experience to share with friends and family back home.

With daily scheduled departures between 8am to 5.30pm, tandem skydive packages range from $594++ to $900++ per person (minimum of two guests per booking).

Ultimate jump for experienced skydivers

While Kandima and Skydive Maldives makes it all perfect for beginners and first-timers, they also offer two options for the more experienced adrenaline jumpers out there; group and solo skydive packages that range from $79++ to $252++ taxes per person. Transfer charges from Kandima Maldives to Dhaalu Airport are additional.

Siyam World expands activity line-up with 3K run and race

Published

on

Part of the Lifestyle Collection of Sun Siyam, Siyam World has never really done “ordinary.” And with two of its most high-energy island experiences now firmly on the weekly roster, families, groups and anyone with a competitive streak have even more reason to book that trip.

Lace Up: The Siyam World 3K Wellness Run

Every week, guests gather at the start line for the Siyam World 3K Wellness Run, where good vibes meet great views. Clearly marked pathways guide the way to a marathon-style route around the island but the rules are simple: go at your own pace, take in the views, and enjoy the moment. Run it, jog it, or power-walk it with a smoothie in hand. No judgment here. Cross the finish line and you’ll earn an exclusive Siyam World 3K Run badge, the most stylish souvenir you’ll take home, and the ultimate bragging rights for completing a 3K on the most epic island in the Maldives. It’s all about moving, smiling, and enjoying the moment.

Game Faces On: The Amazing Race

For families and groups ready to turn up the heat, The Amazing Race is exactly what it sounds like, chaotic, competitive, and seriously good fun. Teams of up to five kick off at the starting point before racing across the island, completing challenges and hunting down clues at every turn. Five challenges. Multiple locations. Zero time to waste. It’s a test of speed, teamwork and quick thinking with a generous helping of chaos thrown in for good measure. And the rewards? Very worth running for. The winning team takes home a complimentary excursion, second place hits the waves on a banana boat, and third place gets behind the wheel at the Maldives’ first-ever resort based electric go-kart circuit. Not a bad consolation prize.

Whether you’re chasing that runner’s high, racing your kids across the island, or just looking for something a little different from the usual sun-lounger routine, Siyam World delivers. Every experience is designed to bring people together, keep the energy high, and create the kind of memories that don’t fade with the tan.

A World Beyond Your Wildest

Siyam World’s summer offer makes it easier than ever to say yes. Save up to 45% off, enjoy USD 150 resort credit, and settle in to Premium 24hrs WOW! All-inclusive from the moment you arrive. Stay 4 nights and a seaplane transfer is on the house — stay 7 and that extends to two guests, plus a floating breakfast for two. And for families, children under 12 stay completely free when sharing with adults. The only question is how long you can stay. Book your stay now

Resort experiences are increasingly shaped by the need for flexibility, with guests seeking activities that can be enjoyed beyond peak sun hours, creating a natural demand for engaging indoor spaces and particularly in tropical destinations where brief, seasonal rain showers are part of the island rhythm.

Cinnamon Velifushi Maldives builds on this evolving guest preference with the introduction of its new 8-hole Indoor Mini Golf Centre, adding a playful and interactive dimension to the island’s leisure offering. The space was officially unveiled at a recent opening, where a guest was invited to mark the occasion, setting the tone for an experience centred around shared enjoyment and light-hearted moments.

The indoor mini golf course offers a relaxed, air-conditioned space where guests of all ages can take part, whether as a casual game between families, a friendly challenge among couples, or a fun addition to group stays. It provides a comfortable alternative to outdoor activities while maintaining the sense of energy and connection that defines time on the island, regardless of the weather.

The addition builds on the resort’s existing indoor facilities, including billiards, table tennis, and a dedicated kids’ playroom, creating a more rounded leisure experience that caters to different moods and moments. Outdoors, guests can continue to explore a wide range of activities, from beach volleyball and futsal to badminton, diving, and both motorised and non-motorised water sports.

As one of the first resorts in the area to introduce an indoor mini golf experience, Cinnamon Velifushi Maldives continues to evolve its offerings in line with how guests choose to travel today, blending activity, comfort, and shared experiences in a setting designed for both relaxation and discovery.
