The mind-boggling question on every longing traveller’s mind, regardless of the destination, is what is the best time to travel, and the archipelagic nation of Maldives is no exception to the question. Lucky for the excited holidaymakers waiting on their long-awaited trip to the Maldives, the country could be described as an almost year-round destination. The majority opinion is that from November through April is “the best time to visit” thanks to the soothing sunshine and clear, azure blue skies, but it is also important to take note that it will also be the time of the year that the country will see the biggest influx of tourists and the peak of prices. May to October is considered the rainy season, so you can expect fewer tourists and scores of attractive deals and prices. In a tropical destination such as the Maldives, a little rain wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world.
