Underwater Restaurants

The exclusive underwater dining experience is another area that's growing in popularity. In these restaurants, the food is prepared on an upper-level kitchen located above water, before being brought down by the staff for your meal.

The first to open was Ithaa, located in the Conrad Maldives Rangali Island in the Maldives. The restaurant opened its doors in 2005, allowing guests to have their meals in a clear acrylic tube 5 meters (16 ft.) under the Indian Ocean. The restaurant is surrounded with 180-degree views of fish, sharks, and coral reefs.

Menu items include freshly shucked oysters, mussels, and honey ginger panko prawns that can be enjoyed while dining in this faux sunken ship surrounded by sharks.

 

 

Subsix restaurants 

Subsix, the restaurant  Located nearly 20 feet below the Indian Ocean, Subsix earns bragging rights as the world’s first underwater club. International DJs spin as patrons dance beneath the waves. The floor-to-ceiling windows lining the walls of the bar provide spectacular night views of the illuminated ocean floor. More than 545 yards from the coast, Subsix is only accessible by boat from the Niyama Resort.
