Melt into the magic of the Maldives

The natural surroundings are second-to-none

You will be breath-taken from the moment you set eyes on the gorgeous islands. There are over 1,000 of them, all lined with floating luxury huts that look onto the clearest waters filled with the most spectacular wildlife.

This tropical wonderland is the perfect place to get up and close with nature and interact with deep-sea wildlife like you never have before. Ditch the wetsuit and oxygen tank and simply paddle in the clear, warm shallows of the blue sea filled with an array of wildlife and colour corals. You can also swim with spectacular sea life, such as turtles, sharks and dolphins.

If you want to see something a bit more exotic and rarer to the region, then you can head into the Hanifaru Marine Protected Area for sights of iconic clownfish, manta rays and a lot more amazing sea wildlife at the exciting snorkelling and scuba diving sites.

The beautiful natural scenes continue way into the night as plankton light up the water as if the dark oasis is filled with sparkling stars for a totally magical evening. The Maldives provides a special atmosphere throughout the entire day that will capture your heart and provide you with unforgettable memories for a lifetime. 

Ramp up your romance

It's no surprise that The Maldives is one of the most popular honeymoon destinations with its remote and enticing settings. You will hear the language of love throughout the islands with candlelit dinners on the beach, romantic strolls on the golden sand at sunset, and relaxed stargazing into the night sky.

It isn’t difficult to escape the hustle and bustle of life and feel like you’re in your own little world with popular places such as Baa Atoll for remote and romantic sunset beach walks or hiking the lush wonders and stunning island interiors, while listening to native birdsong in areas like Dharavandhoo.

Couples can enjoy lots of alone time on these private resort islands and escape into their own bubble in their own water villa, equipped with everything they need from room service to a personal pool.

A honeymoon or romantic getaway can be tailor-made to suit exactly what you are looking for and be in line with your budget as well. There are different levels of luxury at the Maldives, and the good news is it can be done on a tighter budget, so a dream honeymoon to this magical piece of oasis is more likely than you think. 

Mull over the marvel of the Maldives

Even though the Maldives’ islands are home to some of the most stunning and untouched natural beauty in the world, there is a lot more to this place than meets the eye. The Capital city, Malé, is a central hub for history and culture amongst the other islands.

Sultan Park is home to a variety of attractions that are all within proximity for a fun-filled day out. In one day, holidaymakers can explore the famous Friday Mosque which was built in the 17^th Century, take a tour of the Old National Museum showcasing relics from the Buddhist kings and Islamic sultanates, then end the day with a visit to the National Library and Art gallery to view the work of local artists.

If you’re after even more culture and adventure then take a trip to Alifu Atoll to visit the home and birthplace of Sultan Mohamed Thakurufaanu, honoured for his campaign against the Portuguese after their invasion in the 1500s.

The combination of exceptional natural beauty, sunny all-year round weather, and interesting cultural spots means there is something for everyone at the Maldives. Encounter fascinating historical relics and stunning wildlife all in one place, where dreams really do become a reality.
