Maldives is considered one of the most exotic places on earth with its sandy beaches, blue skies and turquoise waters. If you go through social media you will see millions of pictures which depicts the descriptions above, but those pictures do not do justice to the beauty of Maldives. The surreal feeling when you are physically present can only be experienced only by being here. 

Below are few of the many reasons why you need to pick Maldives as your next travel destination.

It’s always Summer 

You can get that fine summer tan you always wanted anytime of the year as the Maldives is sunny all year round with stable temperature highs of around 32 °C and lows around 25 °C. A tropical paradise.  

The Climate is influenced by two monsoons which is more prominent in the northern islands during May to September and in southern atolls during October to early December.

Vibrant Marine Life 

Blessed with the richest marine life, you can find over 2000 species ocean life in our waters including reef fish, turtles, manta’s and sharks. 

Witness the largest gathering of Manta Rays in one of the protected biosphere reserves of the world, Hanifaru Bay. Swimming with the friendly majestic Reef Manta’s is an adventure of a lifetime and if you are lucky you might even have the chance to meet an Ocean Manta or a Whale Shark.  

Special dive expeditions to shipwrecks and renowned dive sites can be arranged with certified dive instructors and if you don’t have a license don’t worry, you can get one right here in the Maldives. 

For those who are not ready to plunge in and dive to the deep ocean yet,  you can always opt out to snorkel in the house reef of the resort, go to nearby coral reefs and meet the friendly reef sharks, turtles, stingrays and colorful fishes in their natural habitat. Snorkeling equipment is available in all resorts.
