Not everyone wants to spend their holidays lazing in the sun. These days, tourists are more active. They want to use their time away from home to learn a skill, discover more about the world and make the most of the outdoors. And one of the fastest-growing holiday activities is sailing.
The warm, tropical Maldive islands in the Pacific Ocean are one of the best places to leam. In less than a week, you can learn to be a scuba diver.
The reefs surrounding these islands are full of marine life. In a single dive, you might see animals in every colour of the rainbow.
