The islands are located some 1,200 kilometers southeast of India and lie between the Indian Ocean to the east and the Pacific Ocean to the west. The following are some of the things to do in the Maldives:
*Enjoy the beautiful beaches
If you want to enjoy the beauty of the Maldivian Islands, then there’s no better place than on its white sandy beaches. With clear blue waters and lush green vegetation, it’s not hard to see why this country is so popular with tourists. If you want to experience the best of what the Maldives has to offer, then head out to the island of Hulhumalé where you can find pristine white sand beaches, turquoise water, and swaying palm trees.
*Visit the historic mosques
There are many historical mosques scattered around the Maldives that are worth visiting. Some of them date back as far as the 17th Century. You can also visit the tombs of the sultans who once ruled over the Maldives.
*Explore the underwater world
The Maldives is home to hundreds of coral reefs which are perfect for snorkeling. If you’re lucky enough to be here during the monsoon season (June-October), you’ll have an opportunity to witness the spectacular phenomenon known as “the rainforest”. During these months, the water becomes cloudy due to heavy rainfall, and the visibility increases dramatically.
*Go diving or fishing
Diving and fishing are two other activities that you should try while you’re in the Maldives. There are several dive sites all around the Maldives, including atolls such as Addu Atoll, Haa Alifu Atoll, Thoddoo Atoll, and Gaafu Alifu Atoll. For those who love fishing, there are plenty of opportunities to catch fish at various locations throughout the Maldives.
*Try out the local cuisine
You will find that the Maldives offers a variety of cuisines, from Chinese food to Italian food. However, if you want to sample the local dish, then you’d best head to Male’ where you’ll find restaurants serving up delicious dishes like rice curry, chicken curry, and mutton curry.
