At SEA Restaurant, Experience the First-Ever Submerged Dining.

Following the establishment of a worldwide reputation for pushing the limits of one-of-a-kind dining experiences to thrilling new heights, Anantara Kihavah Maldives Villas has announced that it is now bringing epicurean adventure to an entirely new level—six metres below the surface of the ocean.

This exciting new 3D sensory dining event will take a strictly limited number of diners beneath the pristine waters of the Indian Ocean to the resort's award-winning SEA Underwater Restaurant. There, they will be immersed in an enchanting marine world as they are treated to a memorable feast for the senses with an enthralling "Message in a Bottle" themed dining experience. This event will be the first truly immersive dining experience to take place underwater in the Maldives.

With sharks, turtles, and tropical fish swimming by the glass windows as diners savour gourmet creations paired with fine wines, SEA Underwater Restaurant is renowned for its surreal ocean viewing experience. Furthermore, the restaurant offers diners a one-of-a-kind immersive 3D dining experience, which makes every moment a delight for the senses and provides the ideal setting for the evening's aquatic adventure.

Not only is the Message in a Bottle experience a supper, but it is also an expedition of enlightenment, a feast of the senses, and a call to action for the protection of the seas, which are the most valuable treasures that our world possesses. Imagine an underwater journey that combines the art of narrative, the enchantment of illusion, and the marvels of cutting-edge 3D technology. This would be an incredibly exciting experience. Imagine a night filled with exquisite cuisine and visual magic that goes beyond the bounds of imagination. Imagine a small gathering of only sixteen guests embarking on a two-hour journey of entertainment and discovery that consists of six courses.

When an avatar from the future sends a fairy back to our current time, it is a premonition of what is to come. This serves as the beginning of the wonderful adventure that will take place that evening. A impassioned appeal to conserve our seas and safeguard our world is contained within a bottle that the fairy carries with her whenever she visits. When the fairy has finished demonstrating how activities that are not sustainable are gradually ruining the environment, she then proceeds to discuss the straightforward actions that anyone may take to reverse the consequences and put an end to the devastation. This message of sustainability is represented throughout the evening's enjoyable experience, from the plot and visual effects to the specially prepared foods that make up the exquisite supper. The evening is a reflection of the celebration of sustainability.

Executive Chef Joachim Textor treats diners to a delectable selection of meals. These dishes have been meticulously constructed to take diners on a voyage that takes them from the depths of the ocean to the arctic, and from the beach to the coral reef. All of this takes place as diners take in the performance that is taking place all around them. Gourmet masterpieces that contain seafood from all over the world in addition to a whole host of special surprises are presented in a way that is engaging, interesting, and enchanting. Each dish is a symbolic representation of a different aspect of ocean conservation. Through the completion of interactive tasks, such as "playing with your food," the diners are totally involved in the show, as opposed to only being passive watchers who take in the entertainment while being able to appreciate the exquisite cuisine.

Incorporated within the narrative is the newly released reef study, which is the product of rigorous research and a ground-breaking scientific evaluation of Anantara Kihavah's award-winning house reef. Over the course of 2022 and 2023, renowned marine biologists carried out this evaluation. The major purpose of the book is to transmit a powerful message on reef appreciation and conservation, which is in line with the underlying concept that was discussed earlier in the evening.
