'SUNSET QUEEN'

Sunset Queen is a luxury cruiser that offers the trip of a lifetime in and around the pristine waters of the Maldives. The Sunset Queen was built in 2003 and is constantly being refurbished and maintained to keep its ocean going qualities intact. Sunset Queen is a motor yacht made of sturdy woods, the vessels architecture combines traditional Maldivian boat building with modern engineering. Most of the interior décor and furnishing's in the vessel are handcrafted.

Sunset Queen offers all the modern amenities and facilities for the comfort and wellbeing of all guests. From the spacious cabins to the rooftop sundeck, Sunset Queen provides ample opportunity for space and relaxation with unlimited fun. The vessel is further facilitated with an air-conditioned Restaurant, Bar, TV lounge, boutique and internet access. A Jacuzzi takes pride of place on the spacious rooftop sundeck, lined with comfortable sun loungers.

Sunset Queen can sleep up to 18 passengers and is perfect either for groups of surfers or those with non-surfing partners. The vessel will however only allow 12 Surfers at any one time.

The minimum requirement for a surf charter is 7 nights - this will allow you to surf the North and South Male atolls. If you have more time available, charter extensions are possible and you are able to surf the Southern and Outer atolls but a surcharge applies. These areas require a minimum length of a 12 night charter to cover the required distance between atolls and to ensure you get ample time at each spot.
