One of the popular water sports in Maldives Islands most visitors tend to go on is snorkelling. Windsurfing is also an excellent sport that you could learn easily when done with proper guidance.
Windsurfing
Windsurfing is a combination of sailing and surfing – because of the ability to be pulled at high speeds across a great distance, unless experienced, the activity should never be attempted without an instructor nearby.
Getting started
Before starting to get trained, it will be good if you get familiar with the terms that are used, so that you will not feel as if you are hearing a foreign language; this will ease your learning process too. This is a very easy and fun sport to do, check with your hotel to find a well-qualified instructor in the area. You can call in advance to your hotel and make arrangements, hotels such as Naladhu Private Island Maldives is known for offering this service to their visitors.
Timing
The best time to try windsurfing is during the wet season, between May to October, when the weather conditions are much windier.
Keep these in mind!
One of the most important things you have to do is to understand the direction of the wind. The most exhausting part of the learning process would be the part where you have to get on the board every time you fall off. Do not be afraid of falling into the water, it would actually be a blissful experience feeling the cold water on you. Once you get the hang of balancing yourself on the board, all you have to do is sail across the ocean waters, guided by the wind.
