Stormtroopers on holiday in the Maldives
The Stormtrooper beach scene in the new Star Wars film 'Rogue One' was filmed at none other than the gorgeous resort Six Senses Laamu
Now everyone loves to lounge on a white sandy beach now and then, and Stormtroopers are not exempt from this (though I'm sure they won't be packing any sunscreen or sunglasses!).
It seems the stormtroopers fancied a bit of sun and a refreshing dip in the sea in the latest Star Wars movie 'Rogue One'. In the movie you see the stormtroopers trekking through gorgeous turquoise waters and stunning white sandy beaches which can be found at the resort Six Senses Laamu. Believe it or not, this setting was not in a galaxy far far away, you can actually visit the resort yourself.
All you need to do is hop on a direct 10-hour flight departing from Heathrow and you'll land in The Maldives. This country may as well be a world of its own due to its stunning beaches, incredible resorts and remoteness. Since The Maldives is a collection of islands, you'll need to catch a quick sea plane or speed boat water taxi to your resort which we can arrange for you.

Suggested Tours
The Southern Maldives: Pullman Maamutaa & Park Hyatt Hadahaa
Tailor-made HolidayThe Southern Maldives operates on a different scale from the atolls clustered near Malé. Gaafu Alifu, where both properties sit, is roughly five to six hours away by speedboat, or a shorter domestic flight followed by a transfer, and that distance does the real work of keeping the atoll quiet. It filters out day-trippers, leaving reefs with far less traffic than the more accessible northern resorts.
