Considered to be among the world’s best coastal tourist destinations, the archipelagic nation of Maldives is one of the most scenic and tranquil locations in the world. Known for its pristine white sandy beaches, unique natural attractions, recreational activities, and laid-back culture, the Maldives is ideal for a relaxing vacation in a tropical paradise. The thriving hospitality industry of the Maldives offers a range of options for luxury accommodation, such as the Anantara Veli Maldives Resort; a five-star Maldives resort hotel.
Being an archipelago which is home to abundant marine life and coral reefs, one of the favorite past times of visitors of the Maldives is fishing. Fishing, which is also an integral part of the economy, is extremely popular in the Maldives. Thus, fishing enthusiasts can have a great fishing experience and expect to catch the likes of tuna, groupers, squirrelfish, rainbow runners, snappers, emperors and many other species of fish.
The great thing about fishing in the Maldives is, it is so popular as an activity that everyone from fishing veterans to first-timers can try out fishing here. Fishing in the Maldives takes three forms; casual fishing, big-game fishing, and nighttime fishing. Casual fishing is open to almost anyone and there are many resorts and sports centers that offer casual fishing tours. Casual tours are ideal for those who just want to relax and spend the day catching fish. Big-game fishing on the other hand is a bit professional. Those of you with some experience can try out big-game fishing, if you are willing to follow the weather and seasonal patterns of big-game fish. Ideally this is for those fishing veterans looking for something a bit challenging. Nighttime fishing is an experience that everyone simply must try out, as the feeling of being out in the open ocean, bathed in the twilight of the moonlight, is truly an exhilarating experience. With a range of fish to catch, and the opportunity to cook up your catch once back on shore, there is no doubt that fishing in the Maldives is a unique experience.
