The Ultimate Maldives’ Water Sports Travel List
Maldives is the ideal destination for a variety of water sports activities from diving to canoeing and kayaking. While there are many water sports centers in the local island as well, here are some of the best resorts.
Scuba Diving at Kuredu Island Resort
The island nation features some of the best diving spots in the world and a large number of resorts have their own PADI certified dive centre. However, with more than 60 dive sites nearby, Kuredu is a diver’s dream. Prodivers boat trips leave throughout the day, helping to ensure that you can make the most of your time in the Maldives. The resort runs single dive trips (morning and afternoon), organizes two tank diving regularly (including afternoon two tanks for late risers) and full day trips (don’t miss out on the Noonu Atoll one!). They also accommodate special requests, such as early morning or sunset dives.
Snorkeling at Baros Maldives
With over 80 reefs in 8 atolls, snorkeling in Maldives is a must. Marine Centre team at Baros Maldives organizes a number of snorkeling adventures for you. The Baros House Reef Tour is a 20-minute class covering the different kinds of marine life and the Marine Biologist takes you to the best snorkeling spots around the island where you can take some photos of the trip. After this educational experience, join the Marine Biologist on safaris to visit other reefs. You can even go night snorkeling and take beginner’s private snorkeling lessons.
Canoeing at Lily Beach
If you don’t want to dive into the water and yet want to explore the beautiful marine life, no worries! The translucent canoe at Lily Beach allows you to take a glimpse of the ocean underneath you, while keeping you comfortably seated and dry. It offers a truly unique perspective of the ocean and tops the must-do activity lists of the guests – especially those who aren’t strong swimmers yet still wish to fullfil their dream of being able to marvel at Maldives’ sea life they have heard so much about.
Wakeboarding and Windsurfing at Conrad Maldives Rangali Island
At the resort, steady gentle breezes provide the ideal conditions for you to become acquainted with the basic skills during your first lesson of wind surfing. The instructors will teach you how to catch the wind in your sail and glide through the water. Wakeboarding is the more natural choice for those who have some experience in skateboarding or snowboarding. It’s a great feeling to skim along behind the speedboat.
