Our Story

The Lobster Tales

Every trip ends with a story. Ours started with a lobster dive at dusk.

Where the Name Comes From

A dive, a fire, a feast

In the islands of the far north, the best night of any trip has always looked the same: a dusk dive along the reef, lobster taken by hand, a fire on an empty beach, and stories told until the stars take over.

We grew up doing exactly that. When friends and guests began asking to join, we realised the thing we loved most was the thing worth sharing — and that every guest went home with a tale to tell. So we named ourselves after the night that starts them all.

Who We Are

Local captains, watermen and friends

Lobster Tales is run by a close team of licensed local captains and watermen from the North Maldives — people who have spent their whole lives reading these tides, birds and seasons. We handled VIP guests and serious anglers long before we had a website, and we run every charter the same way: privately, honestly and personally.

Our ambition is simple and unhidden: to become the number-one private sport fishing and sea-adventure charter in the Maldives — by being the crew people come back to, year after year.

What We Believe

Three promises on every trip

Private, always

One boat, one group, never shared. Your day belongs to the people you brought with you.

Honest, always

We tell you what is realistic for your dates — the fish, the weather, the price. No over-promising, ever.

Local, always

Local crew, local knowledge, local food — and a real welcome into island life most visitors never see.

The Wider Family

Lobster Tales & Chasing Tales

Lobster Tales runs private charters and expeditions. Our hospitality partner, Chasing Tales, looks after shared trips, single seats and day excursions — so whether you want a boat to yourself or a seat on a sunset cruise, someone in the family has you covered.
