The Maldives-Paradise living with nature

Our unforgettable family journey to the Paradise Maldives We went on a 4 days 3 nights trip to the Maldives during month of April, which is the last dry month before the rainy season in May. Best time to visit Maldives is between Dec-Apr. To avoid too high price, I would recommend visiting in the shoulder month in April like us, where we can find quite good offers for plane ticket and resort, and more importantly not very crowded. There are many resorts to choose from in the Maldives depending on your budget. I chose Sun Siyam Olhuveli, because it is family friendly (free for kids under 12 years old), and it offers quite a reasonable price for excursion and sport activities comparing to other resorts. 🐬 Day 1: Arrival in Paradise 🏝️ As the plane descended towards the Maldives, I could already feel the warm breeze greeted me like an old friend, and the scent of saltwater hung in the air. A short boat ride whisked me away to my island resort -Sun Siyam Olhuveli, where crystal-clear waters and powdery white sand awaited. In the evening of Day 1, we went for a Sunset & Dolphin Discovery Sunset Cruise. It was an amazing experience and a must try for everyone. My two kids really loved it. The resort offered quite an affordable price of USD60/adult and USD30/kid (all inclusive price). The Cruise is for 1.5 hours from 5-6:30PM. 🏖️ Days 2: Island Adventures 🚣♂️ Each day brought new adventures. On day 2, we put our kids at the kids club (free of charge for children 3 years old plus), and we went to Three point snorkeling to see beautiful coral reef, the sea turtle and snorkeling with shark. This is the best experience we ever had. While snorkeling among vibrant coral reefs, I found myself swimming alongside schools of tropical fish, their colors as dazzling as the sunset. The snorkeling with sea turtle is amazing, and the most excited experience is snorkeling with sharks, which can only be done here in Maldives. Everyone should not miss this experience when visiting Maldives. The three point snorkeling is a 3-hour activities run from 9AM-12PM. The cost is USD160/adult (all inclusive). We had lunch with our kids at the buffet restaurant, and we enjoy the rest of the afternoon swimming and snorkeling under our water villa with the kids. Evenings were filled with sumptuous seafood dinners under the stars, the sound of the ocean providing the perfect soundtrack. 🌌 Day 3: Farewell, for Now 🛫 As my time in the Maldives came to a close, I found myself reluctant to leave this slice of paradise. But as I boarded the plane home, I carried with me memories that would last a lifetime. The Maldives had stolen a piece of my heart, and I knew that one day, I would return to this enchanted archipelago.
