This is a holiday that dreams are made of. Cruise the Indian Ocean on a traditional wooden sailing boat with your nearest and dearest. Fully crewed and catered, so all you have to do is relax and enjoy the stunning scenery, stop to snorkel or float on the turquoise water in Paradise. Then spend a week relaxing on the sandy beaches of a Maldives beach resort!
Visit unspoilt islands and sample the local way of life. At the end of your day relax on deck gazing at the millions of stars above you. A traditionally crafted Turkish Gulet complete with sails perfectly fits a traveller’s notion of cruising. Watch the beautiful islands slide past on the horizon as you sip a chilled drink and relax on the broad deck, whilst your experienced crew navigates you through the beautiful reefs and channels of the Maldives. Take the opportunity to hop ashore and discover the hidden gems of the local islands, and of course, experience the best snorkelling in the world – the ocean is full of colourful corals and marine life waiting to be discovered each day!
