Maldives is the place where sun, sand and surf meet to create a delightful slice of heaven. While the country is home to various sites for tourists to visit, such as the Hukuru Miskiiy and the National Museum, Maldives remains more popular for its beaches and its water related sports and activities. There are numerous adventure water sports available on the island, and the professionals that conduct them make even the most daunting activity seem easy to novices.

Parasailing is an adventure water sport involving a high speed boat and a giant parachute. The participant is buckled into a parachute that is attached to the boat. As the boat speeds away, the rider is borne aloft. Some places provide the option of taking off and landing on the beach, while other places give riders the option of doing the takeoff and landing on the boat itself. Usually two people can go at a time making it a terrific activity for couples. Parasailing is one of the most exciting adventure sports available on the island. While speeding high above the turquoise ocean is exhilarating, the quiet and solitude at those heights make it a very serene and tranquil experience.

Parasailing also provides spectacular aerial views of the beach, and one can catch glimpses of long stretches of beach, palm trees and endless blue ocean. While parasailing is quite popular, it is hardly the only option. Maldives has some of the best diving spots in the world, and visitors should not pass up the chance to go scuba diving here. There are many other water sports that one can enjoy here such as surfing, jet skiing etc.

There are plenty of operators that offer the facilities for water sports and tourists can look to their Maldives resort for guidance when it comes to choosing one. There are also many Maldives luxury hotels that provide such facilities and staying at such a place can cut down a lot of hassle. The Anantara Dhigu Maldives is one resort which provides guests with facilities to go diving, parasailing, kayaking, jet skiing, wind surfing etc. The resort also has an excellent spa where guests can relax after a long day of activity.
