For the water lovers and the beach bums, not forgetting the honeymooners, what they all look for is the sea, the sand and plenty of sunshine. Well, Maldives is definitely a fit for this requirement now, isn't it? Here are a whole bunch of water sport to keep you adrenaline junkies occupied during your trip to the Maldives.
Ever dreamed of what standing on water must be like? Wakeboarding is sure to make your fantasies a reality! If you don't already know how to wakeboard, this doesn't mean you'll miss out on the fun because you can take lessons in the Maldives itself. Your feet are firmly strapped onto a board, you'll be pulled across the body of water by a speed boat while you hold onto a rope. The most important thing to keep in mind is the centre of gravity. If you can master keeping your centre of gravity in just the right spot to balance, mastering this sport is very easy.
If you are the daring kind, then flyboarding is definitely something you will want to try out. This involves being strapped onto a wakeboard with jet skis underneath. The cable which connects to the jet skis use hydraulic pressure by filtering water and pushing it out with massive force that it actually lifts you into the air. This sport is so much fun, so you must try it but be warned that there's a high risk involved. Nonetheless, you could always learn the sport and do wonders by applying your unique touch to it.
Up for a bumpy ride? Not on the road but on the waves when it comes to the Maldives! This is also a great family activity and the best water activity for non-swimmers. A group of people can sit on the fun tube while it's being pulled across the waters of the ocean at high speed. To know what fun it is, you'll just have to ride it for yourself and experience fun tubing first-hand.
If you want to know what it feels like to fly, this pretty much comes close to it. You'll be strapped onto a parachute, either alone or with someone you'd like to share the ride with. The motorboat then packs up speed where you'll find yourself in the air in no time. Safety measures are strict, and you won't have anything to worry about.
If you are staying at a resort like Milaidhoo Island Maldives, you'll be able to engage in this peaceful activity through arrangements made by the hotel. This non-motor water sport is perfect for gliding calmly across the calm waters of the Maldives. You can even choose a transparent kayak for this session and observe the marine life as you go past.
If you are already in the blissful luxury of your Maldives beach villa with private pool, then the ocean is just a few steps away for a session of snorkelling. Since there is rich marine life in these parts of the ocean, you are sure to have a wonderful experience.
