About Maldives
The Maldives is 1,192 coral islands scattered across 26 atolls, where almost every resort owns its own island. Expect gin-clear lagoons, overwater villas on stilts and house reefs you can snorkel straight from your deck.
The spread is wider than the postcards suggest: barefoot-luxury icons such as Soneva Fushi and One&Only Reethi Rah sit alongside lively all-inclusives like Kandima and Kurumba, while local-island guesthouses on Maafushi put the same water within reach of a mid-range budget.
Everyone lands at Velana International Airport in Malé. From there it is a speedboat (North and South Malé Atoll, 15-60 minutes) or a scenic seaplane hop (Baa, Raa, Ari and the southern atolls, 30-50 minutes). Transfers are booked through the resort and add to the bill, so check them before comparing prices.
Best time to visit
November to April (dry season, calm seas, best visibility); May-October brings lower rates and surf
