PARASAILING
Get a spectacular 360-degree view of the turquoise lagoon and emerald coloured islands on a parasailing trip. Participants are securely strapped into a parachute attached to the back of a speedboat. As the speedboat accelerates, the parachute catches the wind, and you gently glide up into the air. As you slowly rise into the air, you’ll hardly notice the speeds involved. Once you’re up there, there’s nothing to do but admire the natural beauty of the Maldives from a different vantage point. Enjoy every minute of the ride before you slowly descend back to the boat.
