THE PERFECT FAMILY VACATION ON…‘FAMILY ISLAND!’

What does a perfect vacation for families look like ? Let’s put the microscope on a tropical island paradise family resort just 4 hours away from the UAE in the Maldives, called Ailafushi - which translates as ‘family island!’

Travelling with your children to the little island of Ailafushi in the Maldives could not be simpler - you simply walk out of the front door of the airport after a 4 hour flight and you’re immediately hit with a view that tells you you’ve just landed in paradise! You’ll see a picture-perfect beautiful little turquoise-blue bay in the Indian Ocean, with the soothing vista of palm trees…and your speedboat already waiting to take you the short 15 minute ride to Ailafushi. (No, you won’t get splashed - the speedboat is fully covered!)

TROPICAL ISLAND LIVING

The Maldives temperature in August is around 26-30 degrees Celcuis, making it the perfect temperature to spend lots of time to top up on your children’s vitamin D levels outside and enjoy the easy island life that will relax and refresh all the family, regardless of their ages! The sea temperature this month is usually the same, so you’ll enjoy the Ailafushi resort arranging the options of:

• Taking exhilarating boat rides to watch playful dolphins doing acrobatics in the water

• Letting the Ailafushi expert resort dive instructors teach your children how to snorkel or dive

• Taking romantic or relaxing beach walks every day, skimming your feet through the pure crystal clear, warm Indian Ocean

• Enjoying the views of your island from the water by hiring a jetski

• Discovering your inner child on a twisty waterslide that lands you in the warm, shallow waters at the shore of the beach - you’ll be giggling with delight every time, just as your kids will!

• Going fishing, kayaking, banana boating or any ot the other multitude of watersports or activities available
