World’s First Underwater Nightclub Opens


Above: The Maldives’ latest watering hole.

The world’s first underwater nightclub, Subsix, has opened in the Maldives at the Niyama resort (Dhaalu Atoll; 960/6762-828; Niyama.com). Some 500 meters offshore and accessible only by boat, Niyama’s over-water restaurant, Edge, pairs the catch of the day with its wine list, but the main attraction is downstairs—where, six meters below the surface, Subsix’s floor-to-ceiling windows confer unforgettable views of the manta rays and parrot fish outside.
