Top Maldives Tours and Excursions—Experiences Worth Exploring

If you love loads of fun combined with swimming, chilling, and working on your tan, make sure to book a snorkelling excursion. Popular resorts offer tourists a variety of fun adventures to choose from and snorkelling is one of the top allures and a great excuse for a chance to visit the best places to see in Maldives. Ask your resort about snorkelling safaris; places like Adaaran Prestige Vadoo are among those that offer sandbank picnics with plenty of swimming and snorkelling thrown in for maximum fun. Sandbanks are ideal for chilling in the middle of the ocean, swimming in undisturbed waters and enjoying a picnic on the soft sands.

Sunset fishing expeditions are organised by Maldives resorts for tourists seeking additional thrills to the standard attractions. These tours set off into the ocean as the sun begins to dip into the horizon and are quite the treat for romantics as well as those who appreciate the beauty of nature. As night falls, you cast your lines and wait for the fish to bite under the light of the silvery moon. Best of all, you can take your fresh catch to the nearest uninhabited island where the on-board chef will plan a cookout for you to enjoy. Make sure to book your tour via a top resort in the Maldives for the most immersive experience.

Head over to the capital Male and you can hop aboard a whale submarine to tour the depths of the Indian Ocean. The experience is ideal for those of you who don't enjoy diving but also want to experience the beauty of the underwater world. The sub descends to where there is heavy activity and plenty of coral to enjoy the sights.

Dolphin spotting tours are top attractions in the Maldives and are not to be missed. Bottlenose dolphins, in particular, abound in the part of the Indian Ocean the islands are located, and tours are often successful with plenty of opportunities to enjoy up-close and personal encounters with the friendly mammals.

Learn about the lifestyles of simple islanders by visiting an inhabited island. Go there to enjoy chatting to the locals and learn about their daily routines. If you are lucky, you may get invited to enjoy a home-cooked meal while getting to see a fresh catch being hauled in; an experience to be remembered. You can include your local island tour in an island-hopping excursion and pair it with a visit to an uninhabited island where you get to swim in private coves, picnic and sunbathe on soft sand beaches and explore the interior wilds to savour the beauty of an undisturbed tropical island.
