Best things to do: The capital is a city of colourful buildings with interesting places to visit. There’s the National Museum, brimming with ancient artefacts and local history. Sultan Park is a place to sit back and take it all in. Then when you are ready head for the Fish Market, a place to dive in with the locals and see the local catch of the day.
Best time to go: You’ll want to head to Male and the Maldives outside of the monsoon season if you can. That’s between November and April. The weather will be hot and dry, and the resorts will be slightly quieter. Perfect.
Romancing and snorkelling: The Maldives are as romantic a place as you could find. Add some extra loving by taking a boat tour that includes a look at the beauty of mother nature with a snorkel in clear waters. Relax on beautiful beaches and watch the sun setting. It’s a scenic cruise with a difference.
• Unfortunately, the Maldives are slowly sinking! The 1200 islands that make up the Maldives are only around 2m above sea level. This means the area is prone to rising sea levels.
• Equatorial sunlight is very much part of your Male experience. The islands lie on the equator, and when the sunlight hits the country, it’s at a 90-degree angle. You’ll really going to need your sunscreen when you come here!
• White sandy beaches are usually yellow! The Maldives has a true white sandy beach. They are made of coralline, and they are actually very rare! Around 5% of beaches worldwide have them.
