An all-acrylic arched dining room seating fourteen, five metres under a Maldivian lagoon, with 180-degree views of live reef on all sides, parrotfish, reef sharks and turtles pass while you eat. South Ari Atoll's whale sharks are a short boat ride away. Opened in 2005 as the world's first all-glass undersea restaurant, built in Singapore and towed to the Maldives. Designed for a 20-year lifespan, which has prompted periodic questions about its future. It launched the entire genre of underwater dining that Under and others followed. Anchorage: Lagoon anchoring off the resort, permission required. Hazards: None.
