Whale and Dolphin Watching in Maldives

The turquoise-blue sea surrounding the Maldivian islands does not fail to amaze anyone who sets foot on the country. The clearness and the beautiful shades of blue of the water would capture the attention of anyone with no age limit for appreciation. There are many activities that one could do in this beautiful ocean while on vacation in these islands. Surfing, diving, snorkeling, and swimming are some of the most common ways of enjoyment.

Apart from diving and snorkeling, the best way to enjoy the vivid life under the water is to take a boat tour. The Maldivian waters are home to a huge number of whale and dolphin varieties. This area is considered as the 5th best dolphin and whale watching spot in the world. Whilst moving forward in your boat, cutting through the waves and the breeze touching your face, the most common thing that you would come across is the Spinner Dolphin. These creatures with amazing acrobatic skills would do awe-inspiring summersaults and twists and turns nonstop. Another unique experience that you would get is the rare opportunity to see wild dolphins frolicking in their own natural habitats.

The Tropical Bottlenose Whale, Dwarf Sperm Whale and Melon-headed Whale are some of the giant mammal species that you would come across during your excursion. The luckiest visitors would get the rare chance of witnessing the Killer Whale that lingers in the area. The experience that one would obtain here could not be compared to any other place in the world. The tropical climate that lasts for most of the time would create a perfect setting for this journey. Watch the giant whales pass by and the playful dolphins dive in beautiful patterns and the endless sea that spreads to the horizon. If one goes on a ride during the evening. they would be rewarded extra by the beautiful scene of the sunset and the change of the sky into vibrant pinks, purples and oranges.
