Maldives

Coral atolls, turquoise lagoons and overwater villas. Made for a honeymoon, for diving, or simply for a week of doing nothing at all.

Why go

The Maldives are made for doing very little in a very beautiful place: white sand, turquoise lagoons and villas over the water. Each resort has its own island, so it is quiet, private and ideal for a honeymoon or a diving holiday.

Best time to go

The dry season from November to April brings calm sea and the most sunshine. From May to October there are more showers, but prices are lower and the water stays warm.

Highlights

Snorkelling on your resort's house reef
Swimming with manta rays, and with whale sharks in South Ari Atoll
A picnic on a sandbank in the middle of the ocean
A sunset cruise to spot dolphins
A night in an overwater villa

Good to know

Resorts set their prices in US dollars; the local currency is the rufiyaa.
You reach your resort by speedboat or seaplane, and the transfer is part of the price.
On local islands, dress modestly; alcohol is served only at resorts.
