<h2><em>There is no better way to explore the Maldives than diving in its breathtaking, underwater beauty</em></h2>
<p>A Maldives dive safari would take you to the different islands of the Maldives where you could indulge yourselves in a whole lot of scuba diving fun! Once you arrive at the Male International Airport, you will be taken to  the ship of your choice where the warmest welcome from the crew awaits  you. The Maldives dive safari starts as soon as all of the guests have gone aboard the ship. All  guests could just relax and explore the different amenities the ship has  to offer. Most ships are luxuriously designed and offer great comfort,  delectable cuisines, well-stocked bars, and an incredible atmosphere.  All cabins of the ships are equipped with ample air-conditioning,  en-suite bathrooms with hot showers and vary in different sizes to  ensure the maximum convenience of their guests. Once the dive safari starts, you would be taken to the first dive site  of the itinerary. A dive check would be held for those who would wish to  dive in the first destined island to ensure safety of the divers and  the quality of equipment as well. A Maldives dive safari would cruise you around the best beaches and dive sites for you to  enjoy. Different activities could be done in a Maldivessuch  as snorkelling, fishing, volleyball, and even private dinners in  uninhabited islands. A Maldives dive safari would allow you to explore more of the hidden beauty of its different  islands.</p>

<div id="attachment_269" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 437px">
	<a href="http://www.carpediemets.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/Enchanting-Maldives.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-269" src="http://www.carpediemets.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/Enchanting-Maldives.jpg" alt="Enchanting Maldives" width="437" height="242" /></a>

<p>Excited for your first time in Maldives. It&#8217;s a once in a lifetime experience you will never forget, white sand beaches, blue lagoons and swaying palms will greet you once you step foot into this island country in the middle of the ocean. Words will fail to describe the beauty of the Maldives, it&#8217;s arguably the<a href="http://www.carpediemets.com" target="_blank"> most beautiful place on earth</a>.</p>
<h2>For the first time visitor, here are a few tips and tidbits you need to know.</h2>
<p>All resorts in the <a href="http://www.askmaldives.com" target="_blank">Maldives </a>occupy a whole island, it ranges from 2.5 kms across to 150 meters across, this means that the facilities on the resort you choose will be the only ones you will have access during your stay.</p>
<p>Almost all international flights land in Male international airport, depending on how far your resort is from the airport you will have to take either a seaplane taxi or speedboat. Check with your resort if they provide transfers from the airport and back.</p>
<p>When choosing a resort, price is obviously the main consideration. You also have to think that this is a once in a lifetime experience that might never happen again. It wouldn&#8217;t hurt if you spend a little bit more than expected. Most resorts only offer bed and breakfast, cost of meals, drinks etc. maybe high in the resort. Some resorts in the Maldives offer all-inclusive packages, you can only eat in the main restaurant and have to pay extra if you want to try out the other restaurants.</p>
<p>There are a lot of things you can do while on vacation, like snorkeling, scuba diving, catamaran sailing and island hopping. You can even go on a <a href="http://www.scubamaldives.com" target="_blank">whale and dolphin watching safari</a>.</p>

<p>If you are a<a href="http://www.wwwmaldives.com" target="_blank"><em><strong> scuba diving</strong></em></a> fanatic who likes to spend most of his time in the water, then a liveaboard holiday in Maldives your best bet. Get to dive in the most pristine waters and the <a href="http://www.carpediemets.com/" target="_blank"><em><strong>best scuba diving spots in the Maldives</strong></em></a> plus you get to do it three times a day. What more could you ask for? There is no downtime when it comes to a <em><strong><a href="http://www.scubadivemaldives.com" target="_blank">liveaboard holiday</a></strong></em>, unlike in a hotel where you have to go back to a base to refuel and get more supplies. A liveaboard vessel has everything you need, scuba diving equipment, oxygen and food that would last for the whole trip, this means you jump from dive site to dive site without having to waste precious time.There are also dives sites where only hand made dhonis can go into, a liveaboard itinerary holds a lot of exotic sites that your ordinary tour operator would not include.</p>
<h2>The best way to explore the Maldives.</h2>
<p>The <a href="http://" target="_blank"><em><strong>Maldives</strong></em></a> is composed of 75% water this means the best way to explore and discover the different islands of this paradise is by boat. See floating sand banks, uninhabited islands and private coves. Jump off the boat into crystal clear waters. Wake up to dolphins circling the ship and to that magnificent sunrise, a 360 degree view of the bluest waters you will ever see adds to the growing appeal of a liveaboard holiday.</p>
<h3>Liveaboard holiday not only for scuba divers.</h3>
<p>Don&#8217;t worry non scuba divers can also have tons of fun on a liveaboard. You can snorkel on the same dive sites and see exotic fish and coral gardens. You don&#8217;t have to walk to get to the water, just jump from any part of the ship, swim with rays and dolphins and see their antics up close. Deck chairs are provided for those who want to get a delightful tan.</p>
