Luxury Holidays To The Maldives
You are sure to have the perfect time on any of our recommended Maldives Holidays. Just make sure that you don’t forget to maximise your time on those beautiful white-sand beaches and the clear turquoise waters.
Discover Paradise In The Indian Ocean
Cast adrift in the Indian Ocean about a thousand miles from the Indian mainland, the Maldives consists of 1,192 islands, most of them made of coral.
If you want amazing white-sand beaches and incredible underwater photography then a holidays to the Maldives is for you. The Maldives make for the perfect place to find your own little piece of self-isolation under the most glorious sun.
Tourism is the main source of income for the Maldives providing essential work for local people. Its turquoise seas have made the myriad of islands into some of the world’s water sport hubs. The white-sand beaches have lent themselves naturally to creating the perfect location for some of the most exclusive resorts in the world, as well as plenty for people on a more modest budget. The Maldives also make the perfect destination for a special occasion, such as an anniversary or perhaps a honeymoon.
A holiday to the Maldives also offers fantastic opportunities to explore the coral reefs in a pristine setting, and you could even help support one of the coral protection projects supported by resorts in the Maldives.
The capital Male is an interesting place to visit, and to enjoy some of the local culture, dance and food, including trying the Maldivian dish garughiya, a fish broth served with rice, lime and chilli, or mas huni, shredded smoked fish with grated coconut and onions.
Alternatively, why not learn how to dive in the Maldives, and then go swimming with the sharks that patrol these tepid waters. Or maybe you would prefer to just chill out and relax on the beach before sampling cocktails as the sun sets upon the horizon to bring a close to yet another day in paradise on your luxury Maldives holidays.

The Culture
To immerse yourself more with the local culture, you could always stay in a guest house rather than a luxury resort for a few days. There you can interact with Maldivians, eat the local cuisine and even go fishing with them. The further away you are from the capital Male then the more authentic your local experience will be.
The cultural highlight of a Maldives holiday must be experiencing a bodu beru dance and drum performance, whether in your resort or perhaps in Male. Watch the all-male drummers increase the tempo until the dramatic climax as the performers enter into a trance like state.
