Enjoy a cruise out into the Indian Ocean and admire the vibrant seascape of the Maldivian Islands whilst on the lookout for dolphins. You'll get to top-up your tan sunbathing, capture picture-perfect island beaches on your camera, and see wild dolphins in their natural habitat. Keep a close eye on the waters and you may even see a whale shark.
Take to the crystal-clear waters and try to land the biggest catch. With a bit of luck, you could snag a giant sailfish, a yellow fin tuna, a colourful dorado, a fearsome barracuda, or even an elusive wahoo. A day of big game fishing is a thrilling way to spend your time here.
Sail above the atolls of the Maldives and see the islands in all their splendour.

What better way is there to admire the full beauty of the Maldives?
A luxury spa is relaxing at the best of times, but the Maldivians take that idea one step further. Enjoy a full menu of treatments and unwind with a massage in one of the most unusual settings on the planet: under the ocean. Underwater spas give a new name to luxury – relax and watch the tropical fish swim by.
Many resorts provide sailing, windsurfing, waterskiing and reef sightseeing trips by glass-bottomed boat but above all the Maldives are prized as one of the world''s best diving and snorkelling destinations, thanks to their outstanding and easy-to-access underwater life. Every major resort can offer a professional dive school (with courses for both beginners and experienced divers with daily boat trips to sites around the islands throughout the year. Night dives and special dives for experienced divers are also a feature.
Many resorts arrange visits to fishing villages on neighbouring islands – and to uninhabited islands, with a beach barbecue the day’s highlight. Moonlight island excursions are another magical Maldives experience
Late-night revellers be warned. Nightlife at the resorts is pretty low-key - although most do have informal discos around the bar, sometimes featuring live bands. Beach parties and barbecues are popular and many resorts also have regular cultural shows. On some islands there are a few restaurants in addition to those run by the resorts - but the only bars are those at the resorts. Even in Male (where no alcohol is available) ‘nightlife’ is confined to teahouses and a few western-style restaurants.
