Top 7 water sports to do in the Maldives – Fun, exciting and adventurous

No tropical holiday escape is complete without experiencing some of the most exciting water adventures. If your destination is the Maldives, the variety of water sports available for you is huge and some of them don't even need prior practice.

1

Jet skiing

Yes, you do find this exciting water sport in other destinations as well, but jet skiing in the Maldives will always make you feel special. All Maldives island resorts the likes of Huvafen Fushi Maldives offer this sporty experience to their guests, and even if you are not confident enough to try it alone, you may enjoy the ride with one of the trainers.

2

Kayaking

One of the perfect water sports you can carry out when you are in the Maldives to melt away all your stress! To be a part of the swaying waves while admiring the beauty of the coastline at your pace is a blessing and this is what most people love about kayaking. You don't necessarily need to know swimming to try out this experience, but a certain swimming proficiency will always be preferred.

3

Surfing

Well, this is a sport that you may require some hard practice. You have to ride the mischievous waves but, you need to practice your balancing skills here. The Maldives is undoubtedly one of the best surfing destinations in the world, and this is why many international surfing events are annually held here with the participation of world-renowned surfers.

Banana Boating

Planning to enjoy a family vacation in the Maldives? Do you have some members extremely scared of high-risk water adventures? Then, Banana Boating is the perfect water sport for you all. It's fun, interesting, and exciting at the same time. The long boat (that can accommodate 5-6 people) takes the shape of a banana and the ride normally lasts for about 20 minutes.

5

Fishing

If you are looking for a relaxing and rewarding sport to engage in the Maldives, don't forget that you can always opt for fishing! Travellers find it very satisfying to cook the fish they catch, and sometimes they say yes for Big Game fishing sessions as well. You don't need to know swimming, and a good fishing session means pure enjoyment to most of the people.

6

Catamaran Sailing

Needless to say, the Maldives is a great honeymoon destination. One of the most romantic adventures that honeymooners love to take is Catamaran Sailing on the Indian Ocean and this is a truly relaxing experience. If you are someone who loves panoramic views of natural landscapes more than anything, you will love this experience, especially during sunsets.

Parasailing

Are you someone who wishes you could fly like a kite? Then, realize your dream with a great parasailing moment- but under careful supervision! During this experience, you will be able to watch the views from above as a bird would do, while enjoying the breeze that's so refreshing. For a session of 10 minutes, you will have to spend around 90 USD and that's worth it!
