5 Must-Try Water Activities in the Maldives - Adrenaline on the Waves

Maldives, a country made up of many islands, is no stranger to the ocean. With it being one of the main attractions for the country, it is no wonder that there are so many activities available on their beautiful waters. Here are some must-do activities on your trip to the Maldives.

1

Riding In Glass

A relaxing activity that can be experienced by anyone, you can enjoy a simple boat ride along the breathtaking water of the Maldives with your friends or family. But what is truly unique about this boat ride is the glass bottom it has. This allows you to enjoy the amazing sea life in the comfort and safety of the boat.

2

Wakeboarding and Parasailing

If you are an adrenaline junkie, then these activities are what you are looking to do on your trip. Both of these involve you being pulled by a boat and gaining high speeds. When wakeboarding, you get to feel the water on your feet and the bumps of waves as you travel at an extremely fast pace. On the other hand, you get to enjoy a strong breeze as you get pulled by a boat while being harnessed to a parachute, which takes you to the skies. Both activities are truly exciting and are sure to get you pumped for your trip.

3

Flyboarding

One of the latest water activities and an activity that is very popular in the Maldives. Flyboarding involves using a flyboard to propel yourself in the air while being pulled by a jet ski, allowing you to almost fly, at high speeds. It is commonly found near many of the Maldives Island Resorts and is truly a thrilling experience to have.

Snorkelling and Scuba Diving

For any lover of the waters, this is something that needs to be on your to-do list when visiting. But even for those who aren’t as interested, it is still an experience worth trying. Both activities are doable at the Anantara Veli Maldives Resort allowing you to experience this fun while staying at a luxury resort. It is a chance to swim in the beautiful waters as well as enjoy the amazing spectacles to see underwater. What’s more, for those who wish to enjoy the water and dive a little deeper there are trained instructors who are available to teach you how to scuba dive and enjoy the deeper joys of the ocean.

Windsurfing and Kitesurfing

Another set of exciting activities that are available in the lovely Maldives is windsurfing and kitesurfing. These are both water sports that rely on the amazing winds of the ocean. As its name implies, windsurfing is surfing but uses the wind instead of the waves. Many places can rent the gear out for you, and with enough practice, you can confidently sail across the ocean. Kitesurfing, on the other hand, has you balancing on a board and getting yourself pulled by a parachute. It’s almost like you are flying a kite on the water, except this time the kite is moving away from you and pulling you at incredible speeds. They are both very fun activities and are sure to make your trip even more memorable.
