MALDIVES, 18 October 2022: Outrigger Maldives Maafushivaru Resort has announced details of its Christmas and New Year programme, which runs from 19 December to 1 January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A diverse and creative range of activities has been designed for guests who love to eat, drink, keep fit – physically and spiritually \u2013 chill or dance to music, learn about marine life such as manta rays and whale sharks and see them in the wild.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guests who love to eat and drink can enjoy chef Christopher Long\u2019s Christmas market and sign up for hands-on classes on making sushi, Vietnamese hand rolls, seafood curing, cake decoration, and chocolate and wine pairing. There will also be mojito madness and margarita mash-up sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ideal for couples, guests can request private sunset dinners on the beach and a floating breakfast in their pool villa, which can be over water or on the beach, depending on guest preference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Surrounded by immaculately clear tropical waters, Outrigger guests can enjoy sunset cruises, big game fishing (catch & release), kayaking around the island, snorkelling safaris and guided scuba dives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apart from leading marine trips, the resort\u2019s resident marine biologist, Lynn Jula Kessler, will give presentations on Outrigger\u2019s ZONE – OZONE – its global nature conservation initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A key feature of the festive period on the island will be physical and spiritual fitness. Outrigger\u2019s resident yoga and fitness instructor Ajay Sharma has created a thoughtful and holistic regime of sunrise and sunset hatha yoga, balance and strength sessions, pilates classes, core training, flow yoga, and cross fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On New Year\u2019s Eve, management cocktails early evening will be followed by an around-the-globe gourmet journey and then a DJ session from 2230 onwards for guests to dance their way into 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The resort will also run a festive Instagram contest. Guests who post images with certain hashtags could win a traditional dhoni sailing boat sunset cocktail for two, a 60-minute couples\u2019 massage, or a beach dinner for two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
