Six Reasons to Visit the Maldives 

The Republic of Maldives is one of the most sought-after tropical destinations in the world. The Maldives is known for its crystal blue water, lush flora, and white sandy beaches under an endless blue sky. The Maldives is the perfect combination of luxury and tranquility, and with fantastic weather all year round, it’s the ideal place to visit any time of year.  

  1. The Sea of Stars on Vaadhoo Island

This beautiful phenomenon occurs during the late summer, caused by bioluminescent phytoplankton. The water here is filled with this plankton, and the movement of the waves causes it to glow, creating an incredible shimmering effect that looks like the sea is full of stars. People worldwide travel to Vaadhoo Beach to witness this magical, otherworldly occurrence that lights up the sea’s shorelines. 

  1. Island Hopping

There are 1200 islands in the Maldives, 200 of them inhabited. Most resorts and hotels in the Maldives have their own islands. Visitors usually visit just one during their stay, but you can visit other islands to experience nature in the Maldives. If you do plan to island-hop, you’ll need to plan carefully and remember there is no public network of transport between islands. Ferries run infrequently, and renting a speedboat can be expensive. 

  1. Visit Whale Sharks

No visit to the Maldives is complete without a swim with the local sea life. Considered one of the best scuba diving locations in the world, there are various reefs and caverns to explore. For those who prefer staying closer to the surface, you’ll be able to visit marine life while snorkeling. The Maldives’ South Ari Atoll is a year-round home to whale sharks and manta rays. There are several places where you can even enjoy a swim with them. These are rare, bucket list opportunities that you should take advantage of. 

  1. The Most Romantic Place on Earth

The seclusive nature of the Maldives contributes to its beauty. Pair that with private dinners, gorgeous sunsets, and plenty of romantic activities making this location the perfect place for couples looking to make memories. You can stay in the Maldives for seven nights and have a different mind-blowing dining experience each night! 

  1. The Maldives as a COVID-Safe Haven

Each resort in the Maldives is nestled on its own private island and is featured by all the most exclusive hotel brands globally, competing with each other to offer its guests an even higher level of unprecedented luxury and safety. The islands are beautifully socially distanced from the city and the crowd, making for a perfect holiday destination post the Covid-19 pandemic.
