Bandos Maldives
Signature Experiences
To make your holidays enjoyable at Bandos Maldives, and to help you discover the magic of Maldives, We have designed an exciting range of experiences, tailored just for you.
Night Fishing
Bait your hook, drop your line direct from a Dhoni to the reef and hope for a nibble as you watch the spectacular colours of the sunset and listen to the ocean waves lap the surrounding islands.
Island Hopping
Hop on board a local mechanised Dhoni and sail away across the North Malé Atoll to explore the different types of islands in the area. Snorkel, swim or take a nap while you top up that tan in our tropical paradise. You will discover a local island and see Maldivians at work and experience their island lifestyle.
Snorkeling Trip
The coral reefs in the Maldives are inhabited by diverse marine life and are teaming with colourful fish. Snorkelling is the easiest way to enjoy the beauty found beyond the lagoon. Reef snorkelling takes place directly from the boat and is therefore suitable for stronger swimmers.

Explore the streets of this tiny and unique island city through a tour by experienced local guides. Watch the fisherman unload their catch at the bustling local fish market or wander the aisles of colourful Maldivian produce at the local market.
