The excursion trips. These offer you a range of possibilities for venturing out for a change of scenery. You may visit resorts close by or catch a glimpse of the daily life of Maldivians in one of the fishing villages. For those who wish to test their skills at fishing a variety of fishing expeditions are also organised. Excursions are organised on a weekly or twice-weekly basis. However these are subject to weather conditions and a minimum level of participation by the guests. Komandoo is a haven for a relaxing holiday. Keeping in line with this theme, the evenings' entertainment is purposefully programmed to be low key, light and enjoyable- the only exception being the disco evening once a week.

Komandoo offers a variety of water and land sports and activities and there are a few water sports like canoeing and wind surfing which are offered complimentary to all guests. For the regular gym enthusiasts the resort also offer a small gym with a multi-station workout machine and bicycles.

- Evening Entertainment
If you would rather have a quieter evening- which would obviously be reflected from the level of activity on the dance floor- the show ends. The rest of the entertainment inclines more towards the romantic. The 'Champagne Evening' or the 'Candlelight Dinner' would certainly provide lots of romantic moments for the memories. Just for a laugh and some fun the resort also features 'animation' and bar games, from time to time, when your talents and participation may also be called upon.
