Maldives Activities

The Maldives offers it’s guests to the islands a huge range of activities & recreation.  Depending on the resort that you choose, you can sample all of them. The history of the Maldives is represented well in cultural acitvities and performances.

Here are the main ones:

Cultural Activities- The Maldives has something for everyone, including many cultural activities.  These are scenes from a classic Bodu show.

Diving - The Maldives is a divers paradise, and there are options available to choose any and all levels of experience. Almost all resorts offer diving facilities of some kind and some even have their own diving schools and centres. Some resorts offer a house reef to guests this can be used from the beach itself.

The optimum time to go to the Maldives for diving is between January and April as these periods offer the most placid seas, calmest weather and clearest waters for the best visibility.

Remember to bring your C-Card (diving certification card) and log book as diving centres will certainly ask to check them.

It’s also possible to experience diving safaris in the Maldives, which gives you a chance to visit various diving sites, resorts, islands and villages.

More experienced divers may wish to participate in night-time diving where many different types of marine life can be seen, or consider taking some underwater photography.

Island Hopping - One of the most fascinating trips available in the Maldives. Island hopping allows guests to experience life in an isolated Maldivian island. Most of the resorts offer island half or full day island excursions.

Sometimes, the island hopping excursion may be included in your package although this is an optional extra in many resorts. Typically, the visitors are transported to certain uninhabited islands to laze away on the beaches, perhaps enjoy a beach barbeque and do some snorkelling.

Night Fishing - What if you had to catch your dinner? This is exactly what happens in many resorts that offer night fishing. The guests are taken in a dhoni (boat) each with the tools required to catch their own fish those that do catch something appropriate can have it prepared for dinner by the resort chefs.
