Dining

Renowned for its culinary delights, Niyama boasts an impressive array of dining options across its two islands. For all-day dining with stunning ocean views, Epicure and Blu are top choices. Nest offers Asian avant-garde cuisine in a unique treetop setting, while Tribal combines African and South American flavors in a jungle ambiance complete with blazing fires. Dive into a Champagne breakfast six meters below the ocean's surface at Subsix, or experience modern fine dining at Edge, located half a kilometer from the shore. Don't miss out on exceptional beach dining experiences like Braai Night, Took Took Street Food, and Rum, Ribs, and Reggae at Surf Shack.

Activity

On Play Island, experience diving just offshore. Thrill-seekers can enjoy high-speed adventures like zooming underwater on a Seabob, skimming waves on a jet or wakeboard, or soaring into the air with a jetpack. Take in breathtaking views from above as you parasail over strings of islands or encounter bottlenose dolphins up close on a boat trip, with mantas gracefully gliding beneath you. Another standout feature is the Vodi Point wave break on Play Island, making Niyama the only luxury resort offering direct shore surfing. Beginners can receive instruction, while experienced surfers can benefit from one-to-one coaching. Kayaking & parasailing are also available.
