First Undersea Restaurant

This is my next holiday destination :D
Just kidding, but a girl’s gotta dream, right?
Beautiful isn’t it? To explain a bit more, I’m Quoting the Luxist

“Hilton has opened the world’s first undersea restaurant at the Hilton Maldives Resort & Spa Rangali IslandThe restaurant sits over 16 feet down in the Indian Ocean and has 270-degree water views. The restaurant, Ithaa, uses curved acrylic to give diners the sensation of being surrounded by water.

The restaurant can only seat 14 at a time and is reached by descending a spiral staircase. The food is described as contemporary Maldive cuisine equal to restaurants in large cities but with schools of fish swimming over your head it might be easy to ignore the meal.”
Here are some more photo’s if you’re curious

    OMG I would love that. I remember before I got married, that I wanted to spend my honeymoon in the Maldives. Then reality clicked in. :P I’m still ready to go there anytime, just need to save up some cash!

    Supergirl, this place looks great, If you order fish though, I wonder if you would feel like you were being watched?? LOL
