The Cruise

The Maldives' finest hour, to yourselves.

No fixed route, no other guests — just the water, the light and, with luck, the dolphins.

Dolphins at Dusk

Our crews know where the spinner pods gather as the light fades — often dozens, riding the bow.

The Sky on Fire

The Indian Ocean sunset is unmatched — and from open water, it surrounds you.

Canapés on Deck

Why Private

Better than any group boat.

Your group only

No strangers, no crowded deck — the boat is yours for the evening.

Your timing

Leave when you like, stay out as long as the light holds.

The right boat

A nimble speedboat for two, or a yacht for the whole family — your choice.

From your resort

Collected from your island and home by nightfall, with nothing to arrange.

Good to Know

Sunset cruises, answered.

Yes. We arrange private, crewed sunset and dolphin cruises for your group alone — no sharing — on a speedboat or luxury yacht, timed for golden hour.

Spinner dolphins are commonly seen at dusk, and our crews know the pods' favourite grounds, but as with all wildlife sightings cannot be guaranteed.

A private speedboat starts from around $150–300 per hour; a luxury catamaran or yacht for the evening is quoted by the day. We send a fixed price on enquiry.

Most run two to three hours around dusk, though the duration and route are entirely up to you.
