Often regarded as the best way to explore the coastlines of the Maldives, a canoeing excursion is also an inexpensive way to spend one's free time during a holiday. Kayaks, as well as canoes, are easily available from most resorts and private tour operators while those who wish to canoe as a group will also find tour packages to suit their needs. The sun can get hot so remember to wear a hat or cap and lather sunscreen generously before stepping on board a canoe.
