Sunday, a day of shopping in Male: The Maldivian capital city is a thriving port town full of charm and vitality. Spend the day getting lost among the bustling streets, shopping for trinkets, tasting the street food and meeting the charming locals.

Monday, a day of swimming with the fishes: The Maldives have some of the best diving in the world. The crystal clear waters mean unrivalled visibility and the islands are home to a colourful cornucopia of aquatic flora and fauna. If you have a few days, take a diving course for your certification, otherwise take a bubblemaker introductory dive or explore by snorkel.

Tuesday, a day of pampering and beauty: If you choose to stay in a Maldives Resort, the property probably has a spa onsite. Book yourself a full day of pampering, personalised to your body’s needs.

Wednesday, a day of history: Located on Laamu Atoll Isdhoo is home to the largest hawitta in the Maldives, a massive ancient earthen mound, thought to be the remains of a Buddhist stupa and dating back to the pre-Islamic civilization. After soaking in the ancient Buddhist relics, visit the nearby Friday Mosque, a beautiful building over 300 hundred years old.

Thursday, a day of reeling and casting: The Indian Ocean is home to a number of big game fish from mahi mahi to wahoo, sailfish to giant trevally. Try your luck with a rod, then sign up for a cooking class so you can learn to prepare your catch in a tradition Maldivian curry.

Friday, a day of utter relaxation: Don’t do anything today. Lie out. Enjoy paradise. Spend the day basking on the beach or by a private pool villa and let yourself be waited on. Don’t even think about changing out of your bathing suit today.

Saturday, a day of sailing into the horizon: The Maldives are best enjoyed from the deck of a private yacht or sailboat. Bring along a bottle of champagne and a dinner for two and let the sun set on your final perfect day in paradise.
