Sailing has been the main mode of transport in the Maldives for centuries. In fact, for years, this was the only means of communication between people living in different islands. For ages, the only type of vessel in the Maldivian seas was the locally built dhonis. But today, with major developments in the economy in general and in tourism in particular, a wide variety of cruise and sailboats of modern standards are widely used.

At the moment there are over 80 cruise boats operating in the Maldives. What form your cruise boat takes depends on what you want. From those which offer basic facilities to luxury accommodation and service providers, a wide variety of choice is available. However, all cruise boats are required by law to have all basic navigational and communicational facilities as well as all safety requirements.

In the Maldives, we say that the sea is there for the taking. You need to join us to find us what we mean by that.
