A variety of activities, offered at this resort, will surprise even frequent guests of the Maldives. From riding a horse to racing a go-kart and driving a Moke, there are so many exciting things to do at Siyam World. Try the Seabreacher – a semisubmersible for jumping
over and diving under the waves – and Cudajet – an underwater jetpack to literally feel like a fish in the water.
