The Festive Celebration will begin with the Decorating and Lighting of the Christmas
Trees on both islands. Christmas Eve will be traditional with a slight twist as Santa
will arrive by dhoni instead of the sleigh on the 24th, followed by lively Christmas
Carols while guests enjoy cocktails and canapés.

On the morning of the 25th, Santa and his divers will visit the Rannamaari Wreck to
check out the resident guitarfish, jacks, and batfish, while the evening will be filled
with magic and wonders.

Activities such as Toddy Sunset Ritual and Local Market Experience will showcase
local culture and tradition. In addition, Moodhu Collection Fashion Show and Bazaar
will commence at Banyan Tree Beach, featuring a selection of Banyan Tree Gallery
Items and hand-painted t-shirts designed by the talented in-house artist and the
Executive Housekeeper of Angsana Ihuru, Abdulla Shakeeb.

Guests are encouraged to glam up in white and gold for New Year’s Eve, or they can
come as they are, even barefoot if they prefer.

The much-anticipated activity ‘Swim Across the Channel,’ an 890-meter swim
between the two islands, will also take place on the first of January to start the year
with fun-filled and healthy activity.

‘Tis the Season for the Kiddies
A series of fun activities await for the kids at Angsana Ihuru’s newly opened Kids
Club.

There is something for the little ones every day, plus an exciting kiddies Magic
Workshop will leave them in awe. For something a little more festive, kids can
decorate their own gingerbread man, create Christmas cards or go Treasure Hunting.
