Stunning white sand beaches, spectacular views of the turquoise and sapphire glittering ocean, gorgeous sunrises and even more majestic sunsets, and clear azure skies, the Maldives are a dream vacation you have to take to believe in the magic that comes alive on these magnificent islands.
Take time off from your rut of a job as you go experience the calm and the quiet by yourself, away from the bickering of friends and family, and away from the constant ringing of your cell-phone. For the honeymooning couple, the Maldives are a dream getaway with their secluded beaches and romantic views. And if traveling with a pack of close friends to raise all kinds of hell as you dive into the clear blue waters is more to your liking, the Maldives are still one of the best vacations you will ever have.
Luxury resorts or affordable guesthouses, exhilarating speedboat rides or the cheap local ferries, the Maldives have something to offer everyone with their own budget. There is plenty to do here besides basking in the glorious sun and losing yourself in a good book. Coffeehouses and in-house meals at guesthouses and resorts are to die for, and you can experience Maldivian cuisine for next to nothing when it comes to paying the bill.
Now for the main part: activities. There is such a wide range of fun things for you to do during your stay here. Go speed-boating amongst the atolls and snorkeling with manta rays. The sheer exquisite beauty of the underwater reefs is simply breathtaking. You can spend hours underneath the water surface submerged in a heavenly experience. The vibrant sea life is worth every penny you spend on your vacation here, so don’t miss out on it. Whale sharks and sea turtles, manta rays and starfishes; tiny multicolored fishes zooming past you and the sun refracting through the water into a thousand glittering, dazzling waves. And, of course, the ever-friendly dolphins. These highly intelligent mammals guarantee a fun time for all.
Night-fishing is another fun activity you can participate in or just enjoy the fishermen working. Befriending the locals is a great way to gain insight into their daily lives and find great adventures not open to regular tourists. Excursions out in the open waters will become a new adventure every day, different yet still just as thrilling. There is something so fulfilling about grilling fish you just caught and savoring it with friends, new and old.
Besides water related activities, Male, the capital city is a great place to explore. It is home to a number of amazing mosques, museums and other historical monuments and wonderful little cafes that serve incredible seafood and snacks for as little as US$ 3!
Maldives is a treasure trove of great times and even better memories. Vacationing here will be one of the best decisions of your life, and you’ll forever reminisce about the unbelievable experiences you have here. Dive into Maldives, dive in to life.
