<strong>Maldives</strong> Sirru<br />
Fen Fushi<br />
With a name that translates as ‘secret<br />
water island’, this gem of a holiday spot is<br />
concealed within a 600-hectare lagoon in<br />
the Shaviyani Atoll, a 55-minute seaplane<br />
ride from Malé. Let your cares melt away<br />
at the sight of the sun-kissed ocean<br />
that surrounds this all-villa resort – for a<br />
taste of adventure, opt for the castaway<br />
style Tented Jungle Villa. Renowned for<br />
its culinary flair, foodies can dine at four<br />
destinations, including seafood market<br />
Azure and bamboo bar Onu Onu. Not<br />
the sun lounger type? Try Thai boxing,<br />
pummel out the jet lag at Willow Stream<br />
Spa, embark on a desert island picnic for<br />
two, or meet the locals on a cultural tour.<br />
WE LOVE<br />
Take a 50-metre snorkel swim to view<br />
The Coralarium, a semi-submerged<br />
tidal art installation sea-scaped<br />
with underwater trees and endemic<br />
planted corals.<br />
MEMORY MAKER<br />
Get some laps under your belt with a<br />
swim in the 200-metre pool that bisects<br />
the island; the longest in the <strong>Maldives</strong>.<br />
“It's the kind of place<br />
where cares melt away”<br />
