Catamaran sailing is quite popular in the Maldives; enjoy a sunset cruise or half a day island hopping tour where you can look forward to visiting isolated islands, picnics on sun-bleached sand bars and swimming in hidden coves. Like the liveaboard dive tours and snorkelling safaris, these island hopping boat tours offer a marvellous insight to the archipelagos charms and attractions. You will also have a chance to visit one of the local islands where laid back locals will indulge in traditions as old as time and maybe invite you in for a meal of delicious home cooked meal.
