Participation in the Space Summer Camp will be offered to all guests on a complimentary basis during Stott’s residency, providing aspiring young astronauts with the opportunity to discover a host of activities that promise adventure whilst educating about the universe at the same time. Guests can jump in at any point while the camp is running, to enjoy a fun-filled itinerary of space-themed island experiences which include:
Space-training Snorkelling Safaris through to Stargazing

- Stargazing in the Evenings – Nicole Stott will regale travellers exciting tales of the galaxy. The dark sky reserves of the Maldives allow for incredible viewing of the Milk Way, even from the naked eye
- Space Suit Decorating – Participants have the opportunity to decorate a real space suit with space flights, reinforcing a connection between art and science.
- Postcards to Space – Travellers can join Stott’s international space mail project by writing to the brave astronauts in space. The messages and artwork will be combined with contributions from children around the world and sent to put a smile on the space-travellers’ faces.
- Space-training Snorkel Safari – Fun Fact: Stott once spent 18 days living underwater in preparation for spaceflight, at the Aquarius Undersea Laboratory.
