The Maldives is a new destination for surfers.
The ideal waves that characterise the sea around the resorts on
the atoll edge, accompanied by the good facilities, on the
resorts make the country a superb destination for surfers.
Windsurfing
The breeze and the wind movement and the large
lagoons that surround most of the islands are ideal for
windsurfing. A majority of resorts have windsurfing schools
where you could take instructions and lessons and even be
certified. Like the diving schools the surfing schools are
well-equipped. Most of the time the condition is suitable for
beginners.
Water Skiing
Many resorts have their own speed boats and skis for rent on per
hour basis. Some even have instructors available to give you
lessons. Prices vary form resort to resort.
Para-sailing
Equipment and service (boat and sail, and
guide) for this adventurous pastime is offered by the more
luxurious resorts. This would be ideal for those adventurous
enough to go through the challenge. It will give you a fantastic
Arial view of your resort and the surroundings.
