A tiny, remote paradise with unparalleled luxury and exotic beaches, Maldives is a must-see destination of a lifetime. You will never find the sand in the beaches more whiter or the still waters more bluer. And this fact alone acts as a crowd-puller to this stunning destination. Pamper yourself with love as you enjoy a luxurious lifestyle at one of the resorts, which could be treated as an island of its own.
Moreover indulge in island hopping to get to know more about their local life. Make your evening perfect with a spectacular view of the sunset and let your adventure spirit soar high by visiting a deserted island. Dive into the underwater world with snorkelling and discover a whole other world of dazzling corals, magnificent caves and a magnitude of brightly coloured fish. Swim in the privileges we provide through this shore excursion and make the best out of it.
It just appears out of nowhere in the Indian Ocean. Barely visible when you fly across, the tiny islands of Maldives zoom into view only when you are headed for it. The Republic of Maldives is a beautiful string of low-lying coral islands in the Indian Ocean, a paradise for anyone who wants to enjoy leisure at its best. Like the Indian territory of Lakshadweep a bit further north, the islands here are called atolls. The country’s 26 natural atolls offer numerous delights from night-fishing trips to windsurfing and scuba-diving.
The white sandy beaches, the exotic lagoons, the crystal clear sea and abundant marine life make it a perfect destination for fun, leisure and family. Tourism is one of the major industries in the country. There are many nice getaway resorts on the coast where you can just laze around or if you are adventurous go snorkelling with expert help and supervision. Yachting off the coast is also popular.
Populated mostly with muslims, Maldives also has some Hindus and Christians. The language they speak is Mahl. It is a peaceful country with good international relations.The fact that Maldives are low-lying (80% of the territory is less than 1m/3.3ft above sea level), makes it perfect for snorkeling and one can view the coral life at close quarters. Global warming is adversely affecting this little natural wonder and the internal community need to take some concrete steps or we might loose this beautiful country altogether.
