With tons of activities to indulge in, one spectacular way to enjoy an afternoon in beautiful Maldives is to set forth on a dolphin watching journey. The calm waters of Maldives are home to a variety of these beautiful creatures and they are seen in abundance. Some of them leaping in the air, some of them swimming like the wind and some squabbling with each other, there are plenty of these wonderful animals waiting for your admiration, so make sure to make this excursion a must when you visit Maldives.
Cameras are a must on your dolphin watching journey as these moments are meant to be captured. Some of the dolphins you will come across on your journey are the spinner dolphins and bottlenose dolphins. The most common species here is the spinner dolphin and there are over ten thousand of them swimming amongst the Maldivian waters. Apart from the two common dolphin species mentioned there are also many others and these include the likes of Risso’s, Fraser’s, spotted, rough-toothed and striped dolphins.
In addition to these dolphins, travellers can also see many different species of whales and these mammoth-sized mammals are a treat to watch. With water spouting out of their blowholes, an experience among these creatures will be overwhelming. Whilst journeying through the island waters, you will see the likes of the giant blue whale, the Bryde’s whale and the sperm whale. Other whales like the dwarf whale, pilot whale and the cuvier beaked whale are also among the marine species seen here.
This journey is not complete without a diving or snorkelling experience alongside these magnificent marine mammals. Apart from these pleasures, one can also enjoy a plethora of water sports offered to enthusiastic travellers.
If you are looking for a Maldives resort that boasts elegance and comfort, then a stay at the Anantara Dhigu, Maldives, is certainly for you. This lodging option is among the Maldives luxury hotels and it offers guests impeccable services for a memorable stay.
