What To Do In Maldives ? My complete Guide The Top Activities

What To Do In Maldives ? My complete Guide To The Top Activities

The Maldives, a tropical paradise fueled with exciting activities that will cater to your sense of thrill. They are so many !

Let me guide you here through the top activities to do in Maldives, including surfing, snorkeling, windsurfing, tennis, yoga, skydiving, freediving and more. I hope this will help you and inspire you to gear up, pack your bags, and embark on a journey to my favorite destination and ex-home, the Maldives, also known as the Island Kingdom.

note : I practiced most of these activities on various occasions and places around the Maldives.
BUT : I never experienced skydiving and freediving… I am adventurous but not that courageous.

The Top Activities to do in Maldives. My personal guide

Welcome to the Maldives islands, where you can ride the waves and catch some of the world’s most incredible swells with surfing, or explore the vibrant underwater world and get up close with exotic marine life through snorkeling and scuba diving.
The Maldives, the ultimate playground for kitesurfers and windsurfers, where the winds strongly blow over endless transparent turquoise lagoons.
If you are looking for a more earth rooted activity, you can play tennis amidst stunning natural surroundings, on the dreamiest tennis courts you will ever see or practice Yoga surrounded by the most surreal landscapes.
Finally, if you’re really into adrenaline-fueled activities, skydiving over the archipelago will be the experience of a lifetime.
