Visit the Maldives for Surreal Travel Experiences

Enjoy snorkelling, sunbathing, and relaxing spa treatments on your holiday in the Maldives.

The Maldives welcomes globetrotters with 26 atolls and hundreds of islands in the Indian Ocean. Holidays in this idyllic place are nothing short of extraordinary. Visit the Maldives to spend your holidays soaking up the tropical sun or swimming in calm lagoons. If you stay in an overwater villa, you can have breakfast by the beach and spend the rest of the day exploring.

The kaleidoscopic marine life and myriad outdoor activities will tempt you to plan an action-packed itinerary. The North and South Ari Atolls, Hanifaru Bay and Fulidhoo Island are the best places for divers and snorkelers. The best time to plan a holiday in the Maldives is around December to March if you want to beat the rainy season.

Sunset cruises with dolphin sightings, underwater spa days at Huvafen Fushi and beach clubs are also part of the equation. This must-have experience and attractions showcase the glamorous side of the Maldives. If you're interested in planning a luxurious holiday, add these ideas to your bucket list.
