Welcome to Vilu Reef

Step into the rich heritage of the Maldives at Sun Siyam Vilu Reef’s Athireege, meaning “the beach house” in the local language. This cultural haven offers a glimpse into traditional island life, where you can enjoy an authentic Maldivian breakfast or dinner right by the ocean and delve deep into the local culture.

Discover the heart of Maldivian island life with a visit to a local fishing village. Wander its sandy pathways, meet the friendly residents, and glimpse daily life through stops at the mosque, the school, and small shops filled with handcrafted treasures. It’s a culture-rich journey that reveals the soul of the Maldives beyond the shoreline.

Set out at dawn or dusk aboard a traditional Dhoni and try hand-reel fishing, just as it’s been done in the Maldives for generations. With a bit of luck, you might reel in a red snapper or catch sight of dolphins and other marine life as the reef comes to life around you.

Hop onto a jet ski and power across the lagoon for a fast, refreshing way to explore the open water. It’s a great activity for friends, offering the chance to ride side-by-side, pick up speed, and even jet out to a nearby sandbank for a quick escape.

Take control of our stylish jet car and skim across crystal-clear waters for an experience that feels straight out of the future. As the engine powers up and the spray lifts around you, the ocean opens wide, inviting you to chase the thrill across its shimmering surface.
