The Maldivian workforce is largely comprised of workers in the fishing sector. It is the Maldives’ second-largest industry after the tourism sector. In the past, the Maldives sold dried tuna to its neighbours. The renowned “Maldives fish” is a staple in many different cuisines in Sri Lanka.
Fishery sustainability
In the Maldives, fishing is primarily done with family and friends. In the past, everyone in society participated in the activity.
Maldives Fishing Adventures
Tourism and fishing are closely related. The profusion and beauty of life in the oceans surrounding the islands are ultimately what support both industries.
The Catch
The Maldives is primarily a maritime civilisation. Instead of becoming popular tourist destinations, the sun, sand, and water are an integral part of Maldivian culture. Additionally, there are some of the best all-inclusive resorts in Maldives such as the Adaaran Maldives where you can enjoy some of the best catches of the day.
Night fishing
One of the most thrilling fishing trips one can have in the Maldives is night fishing. On a beautiful night, the equatorial night sky is illuminated by millions of brilliant stars, and you can clearly see where the sky ends and the ocean starts.
