5 Fun Beach Games for Kids and Adults

Discover some must-try fun beach games during your ultimate vacation at Kandima Maldives. With simple, easy, and fun-for-all adventures, you can enjoy the sun, sand, and surf with these oh-so-cool beach games. Here are the best games to enjoy at your kind of place, whether you're with your family and young ones, or taking a trip with your friends.

While traditional Beach Soccer and Beach Volley are fun to enjoy by the shore, you might want to try out the big ball volley and have an extraordinary time. The rules of the games are easy — to start off; you have to create two teams, with each team playing on either side of the volleyball court. The game is played quite similarly to a regular volleyball game, but the twist is that the volleyball is huge. So, it requires a collective effort from the team to hit the ball. With the ball's massive size, it only adds to the fun time as you bond with each other while scoring some wins.

Unleash your inner artistic skills and make the beach your canvas. With buckets, pails, and shovels at your disposal, this competition will set out to declare who can make the most creative sandcastle. After an uber-fun time by the beach under the tropical sun, you can head over to Aroma Café to cool down with some oh-so-delicious ice cream and sorbet — or to the Beach Club for some refreshing cocktails and mocktails.

There's no better way to get the adrenaline pumping than through an engaging tug of war. Let your competitive side run wild as you pull on the rope. With sandy feet, cheerful screams and the sheer dedication to win, this game of strength and strategy is bound to create a lasting memory. Everyone will be in for a fun time of #JustPlay at their kind of place.

Another fun game that matches the thrill of Big Ball Volley is the Beach Ball Towel Game. In this exciting activity, one person grabs one end of a towel, while the other clutches the other end. Then, they work together to bounce the beach ball — or a balloon filled with water — on the towel and pitch it to the other side of the court. The other team also catches the ball with the towel and tosses it back and forth, adding to the score with the throws before it falls off. Bringing the perfect mix of sun, sand and fun, this game allows you to be active while having a fun time. 

This is a fun and a definite musty-try for those looking for a simple yet ecstatic time. The rules are simple — While the front of the line has a bucket full of water and an empty plastic cup, the first player fills the cup and passes it backwards over their head to the next player. The players continue passing the cup backwards overhead from player to player until the cup reaches the final player. The challenge of this thrilling game is not to get too wet. And for those looking to take the game to another notch, you can add a blindfold to the game and make it more interesting.
