"Ollie reluctantly surrendered his trainers at check-in - Soneva's no-shoes policy begins at the moment of arrival - but it didn't take long for the fantasy to work its magic."
"By late afternoon, sand had already found its way into Ollie's pockets. And his hair. And his book bag."
"We raced hermit crabs along a track he'd scratched into the beach and pedalled bikes on palm-lined paths under a canopy so thick it filtered the light into puddles of gold."
A seven-year-old boy named Ollie, initially reluctant about the beach, experiences a change of heart during a week-long trip to the Maldives. The allure of a luxurious resort, Soneva Fushi, captivates him with its no-shoes policy and enchanting surroundings. As he explores the beach, engages with hermit crabs, and enjoys the resort's amenities, he gradually becomes more comfortable with the ocean. The trip transforms his perspective, allowing him to appreciate the beauty and fun of island life.
