Skiing
Many resorts have their own speedboats and water skis for
rent on an hourly or daily basis. Some even have instructors
available to give you lessons. Prices vary form resort to
resort.
Parasailing
Most of the bigger resorts offer the excitement and fun
of parasailing. Some offer instruction for beginners. Parasailing
is ideal for those adventurous enough to try it. In addition
to the excitement of being high up over the islands, it
gives you a fantastic aerial view of your resort and the
surroundings.
Fishing
Maldivians have been fishing people since time immemorial.
Its no surprise that our resorts can guide you to the best
fishing spots around.
Almost
all the resorts offer fishing, night fishing being the most
popular. A unique Maldivian sport, night fishing provides
a quiet, relaxing time under the stars, out at sea, rocking
gently to the waves, in addition to the excitement of fishing.
In night fishing, the boat is anchored at a reef just before
sunset. Lines are tethered with hooks and sinkers and dropped
over board. The favourite catch is the red snapper. Many
resorts also organise morning fishing and big game fishing.
Morning fishing, like big-game fishing involves trolling
outside the atoll, usually along the outer atoll reef. Most
resorts offer only the basic equipment for big game fishing
and therefore it is advisable, if you are an enthusiast,
to bring along your own equipment.
