Our Story

Voyage with Amber

An epic voyage brought the schooner ‘Amber’ to the sweet and gentle shores of South Malé Atoll.

She started in the Florida Keys before island hopping down the famed Caribbean island chain. Through the treacherous Panama Canal and across the vast Pacific via Galapagos and Tahiti. Then she evaded storms, pirates and cannibals as she journeyed north of Papua New Guinea before alighting in the Magical island of Bali for a rest.

On the final stretch, she squeezed through the Malacca straits and after a brief stop near the big surf of Sri Lanka, came to rest in South Malé Atoll to await await new adventures with sailors visiting the Maldives.
