Of the many attractions and packages that are available when staying at Maldives Resorts such as Vakarufalhi, the land based activities fall broadly into three distinct categories. The first is those which pamper your body. This includes spa therapies and treatments that would leave you feeling rejuvenated and revitalized. The Duniye Spa housed within the Vakarufalhi Maldives Resort is a unique one combining treatments of East with West to offer an amazing array of treatment options for guests.
The next category features activities that work your body. These can be the various water sports activities for which Maldives is popular, like scuba diving, snorkelling, kite surfing, deep sea fishing, night fishing and much more. Vakarufalhi is also home to a PADI approved Diving centre which undertakes quick diving lessons necessary for those interested in engaging in this activity. Qualified professionals are at hand to help guests in every way possible. Although mildly strenuous these sporting activities make for spectacular discoveries in the waters around the Maldives.
The third category are those activities that do not allow for any type of physical excursion except for perhaps reaching out for a cocktail or turning over to obtain an all round sun tan. This particular type of activity is certainly a favourite as can be seen by the numerous amounts of deck chairs laid across the white beach under the shade of the gently swaying palm trees.
