Scuba diving
The Maldives is the perfect spot for water sports activities and one of my favorites is scuba diving. Diving in the deep blue sea is one of the bucket list things to do. There are many reasonable PADI divers where you can get a chance to get your first diving experience if you’re not a certified diver. There are designated spots for first-timers and several other dive options to one of many reefs.
The Maldives is blessed with majestic marine life ranging from stingrays, whales, sharks, turtles, and much more. The water is at a perfect temperature and you don’t need to buy or rent expensive diving suits. In this clear crystal water, you can experience the true colors of marine life and see the charm of the underworld.

Snorkeling
If you’re not a big fan of diving that much then you should try out snorkeling. The reefs are so abundant in exotic marine life that you don’t have to dive deep in search of it. Rather you can see schools of fish and dozens of turtles in their natural habitat. Once you get in the water there is no way you’re getting out by yourself. You’ll find yourself trapped in the immense school of fish and they will decide your next move. This experience worth every penny.
Submarine tour
If you’re afraid of water or you’re visiting with family then you can still enjoy the essence of snorkeling by going on a submarine trip. This new addition is perfect for families with children. Depending on the tour you can easily enjoy being underwater and be completely dry.
Dolphin watching
Dolphins are the most loved sea creatures among children. If you ask anyone what’s the one thing that tourists must do here. They all say the dolphin’s excursion. No doubt getting a chance to spot them is one hell of luck. The dolphins of Maldives are no doubt pretty much more friendly and playful than the ones at the aquariums. Try not to get too close because it might scare them away. Keep a safe distance and enjoy the wonders of nature.
Visiting different islands
The Maldives is as beautiful on land as it in the water. Don’t just stay on one island. Have some time to explore a few others. It might have a lot more to offer than the previous one. The locals are very welcoming and rich in culture. Few islands far from Male are affordable and also less crowded. If you want to relax then finding the right island is pretty much necessary.
The Maldives is a strict Muslim country and bikinis and short clothes are prohibited there. Make sure to dress accordingly. Also, bring some cash to buy local crafts and jewelry to show some appreciation to local vendors.
Surfing
The Maldives is a world-class place for all the surfers out there and it’s a hotspot for all the adrenaline junkies. The perfect weather and high tides attract top surfers from around the world and many international surfing competitions are held here. If you are not good at it then you can see those pros doing all the stunts in the morning, seeing them playing with the water is like watching a live world cup match. There are few spots where you can get some surfing lessons with certified instructors.
Stand up paddle boating
Well, I understand that surfing is a dangerous sport for beginners, still, if you don’t want to stay out from the water for too long, you should check out stand-up paddleboarding. You can board in safe bays with calm water. Water being so clear that you can see the actual colors of fish underneath you. Most resorts have restricted areas where the guests can paddleboard in a safe environment.
Interesting Fact about Maldives: Of the 1,190 islands in the Maldives, only 200 are inhabited. An additional 80 islands host private, luxury resorts. The rest of the islands are either too small to sustain life or too remote to be practical. Additionally, 99% of the 115 square miles that make up Maldivian territory is water. That’s a lot of potential dive sites to explore!
Book a massage
If you get tired from all the sightseeing and water activities. Spend some time with your loved one and book a massage to enhance the romance factor between you. It’s an ultimate relaxing experience and you feel much better after one session. The soothing music and skilled masseurs will give you the ultimate pleasure by rubbing all the pain away from your flight and tiring day. Make sure to clear all your daily activities and just spend an entire day to ease your body and believe me after a few hours session you won’t be able to do anything but relax.
Overwater bungalows
Everything comes at a cost and if you’re willing to pay for it then you’ll be able to enjoy some of the ultimate experiences in the Maldives. You can book an overwater bungalow as a family or as a couple and you can go swimming, snorkeling, or sunbathing anytime. It’s like your own little resort and you don’t even have to leave your room. The beautiful blue water will be the first thing you’ll see when you wake up and there is nothing else more relaxing than this.
