5 Amazing Things to do in the Maldives – A vacation you’ll not forget!

It's true when they say the Maldives is like a slice of heaven... with never-ending sparkling blue seas, white sandy beaches, and plenty of sunlight, Maldives will not disappoint.

1

Explore the capital

Male is the capital of the Maldives, and this is where the international airport is located. Male has a population of over 130,000 people and is known to be among the most densely populated cities in the world. Although many people flying into the Maldives will only catch a glimpse of the capital's tall buildings, there is so much more to the mainland than one would initially think. You can leave Male either for the beginning or the end of your holiday, but due to COVID-19 restrictions and guidelines, you may have to check beforehand whether or not you're freely able to explore the mainland. The highlights you will find in Male are the relics at the national museum, the Old Friday Mosque, and the several colours of the local fish markets.

A Spa Day

Your holiday in the Maldives isn't complete if not for a much-needed spa day! The relaxing and rejuvenating spa sessions at many Maldives spa resorts, the likes of Niyama Private Islands Maldives add a much-needed element to your already relaxing holiday. The Maldives is supposed to boast over 100 top spas at island resorts. In fact, the resort spas match the luxurious standards and offer guests an experience of a lifetime. There are spas located in the most unique spots in the Maldives, even underwater in some cases! Every spa conveys an unmatched ambiance of serenity and relaxation, so don't miss out.

Diving

When in the Maldives, exploring its diverse and rich underwater life is equally important. As soon as you lay your eyes on the crystal clear waters surrounding the islands, you're going to want to explore further. The majestic life underwater is breathtaking, with an abundance of marine life which makes the Maldives one of the world's premieres scuba diving spots. You will spot giant whale sharks, reef sharks, and manta rays. Most resorts have their own dive center and an experienced diver to assist you at all times. Some locations even run courses to teach beginners how to navigate the colourful underwater world.

Island Hopping

You're unlikely to run out of islands to visit when in the Maldives, so take the opportunity to go island hopping! You can also plan to stay at two or more island resorts in different parts of the Maldives to get the best of all worlds. All islands are blessed with the whitest sandy beaches and with stunning blue waters, so make sure you take your camera with you as you go! If you visit islands that are inhabited by locals, remember to be respectful of their faith and culture.

Take in the sun

The most important part of your holiday in the Maldives is to soak as much of the sun as possible! Don't forget your favourite swimsuit and sun cream as you pack your holiday bag.
