Diving and Snorkeling
The Maldives are visited by people for the pristine beaches and a variety of water activities. With its abundance of marine habitat, the underwater life of The Maldives is incredibly beautiful. It is popularly known as diver's paradise. Snorkeling amongst the coral is one of the most common water sports in The Maldives. The reef that partially surrounds the island is known as the house reef, make sure it's near enough to swim to. There are a few resorts that have wonderful wide lagoons where you can go swimming and windsurfing.
If you're a diver and want to swim with the tropical fish, book a resort that is located on the proximity of dive sites. This way you can snorkel any time of the day of your vacation. Check whether your resort provides any diving facilities, if not contact one of the many dive centres there. Many popular dive sites specifically the ones in Ari Atoll are very busy. Some of the atolls are not so developed but have exemplary dive sites. Since these dive sites are lesser known, they are much quieter. If you don't know diving, it is the right place to learn it.
Accommodation
The accommodation choices and expenses vary from one island to another. Given the fact that you will be surrounded by the ocean at all times, most of you won't feel the need of a pool. But some people need pool and if you are one of them, check with the resort before booking the rooms. The location of the resort makes a difference. You can choose to stay at one that is set back in the island, one that is on the beach or over the water. There are many resorts that are located on stilts over the sea. If you wish to swim in the sea, you will have to walk to the beach as these don't have any steps down to the sea. Make sure you check the description for the resort type on its website beforehand.
Many operators there provide transportation by the air taxi. Whether you want to reach your resort from the airport or visit different islands by a sea plane, you can hire an air taxi. To make your holiday an experience of a lifetime, you should get a package deal with a travel agency that offers holidays to the maldives in The Maldives.
