The Resort Map marks snorkelling sites as well as areas where snorkelling is prohibited, swimming is prohibited, and where there is strong current.

The resort offers a traditional symbolic wedding ceremony or renewal of wedding vows officiated by the island headman, with Maldivian Boduberu drummers, flower girls scattering petals, tropical flowers, locally sourced coconuts, a decorated boat trip to the couple's room, a welcoming face towel on arrival and bed decoration.
