Any resort in Maldives is guaranteed to have facilities for its guests to make the maximum use of the waters surrounding the island, whether it is sailing on a yacht, going out sea fishing or engaging in adrenaline pumping water sports. Water sports activities have been famous among most tourists coming to the island. Resorts such as PER AQUUM Niyama Maldives have their own in-house water sports centres that offer various activities.
Catamaran sailing is one of the water sports that is famous in Maldives. It is a great way to fall in love with the blue waters around the islands. So is kayaking, giving you the thrill of paddling your way into this blue marvel. The best time to hop on a kayak would be April –October. If you want to get in there and explore what’s beneath the waves then snorkelling is a great activity to do. Snorkelling is a great way for non-swimmers to explore what lies down beneath with the help of a mask and fins. This is one of the popular activities in Maldives. However, if you want to go a notch higher then Scuba diving is a great activity to do as this takes you further into the ocean and wreck diving is also regarded as one of the most preferred water sports activities. Other sports that are great to have fun as a pair or a group while having your adrenaline levels soar up are banana boat rides and Jet Ski rides.
Underwater walking, big game fishing, glass bottom boat rides and kite surfing are also some of the exciting activities on offer. There are water activities suited for all age groups and competency levels on offer here.
