15. Lounging

In Velaa there are several spots that are ideal to spend your time. This is your Beach Villa lounge area. Grab a story book and enjoy. This is a nice location that is perfect for Instagram or just chat with friends. But, too much distraction is not ideal when you are in paradise.

18. Jetski

Do you fancy high speed rides? Get on one of these and you will be riding at crazy speed. A day out in the sea is a good fun time, alone or with your partner. Some people may prefer choppy waters for some flyover moves while others like smooth rides. How about trying both conditions? Riding on rough waves may need some skill or at least some experience. But, some days the sea is so smooth and peaceful. A joyful sport on such a day would be to have some fun with jetski, esepcially taking some sharp turns as the beast reaches near top speed. But, you have to start slowly and gain confidence before going for fiece maneuvers. Rushing for adrenaline too quickly is risky business. Remember that you are in real life, not in James Bond movie.

19. Submarine

Scuba diving is an awesome activity that could get very addictive. But, it is not for everyone. There are guests who are not comfortable to do diving despite despite so much excitement to discover beauty of the underwater world. This mini-submarine at Velaa enables just that and it does not go too deep as it is a casual tour, not extreme sport that comes with wanted risks. Scuba diving fanatics could also enjoy a memotable moment with the loved one without getting wet. On board the submarine you can discover reefs quickly. This experience is not same as snorkeling. You can try both to understand.

20. Fun Tube Or Banana Rides

It would be unfair to complete a family vacation at Velaa Private Island without taking kids for a fun tube ride, you can also choose the classic banana if you wish. A variety of floating inflatables pulled by high speed jetski or speedboat is thrilling sport that has been popular in the Maldives for decades. While the water sports instructors understand the limits, you can also tell them the thrill you have in mind. A little bit of adventure and fun should never be missed on a family getaway.

21. Scooter Snorkeling

Regular snorkeling is sometimes tiring and sometimes the sea currents are too strong. Snorkeling on scooter is the solution. No matter how confident you are, never go alone. Weather conditions are very unpredictable in Maldives and sea currents often change quickly. Scooter snorkeling lets you do the activity at ease and access remote areas of the reef.
