why this archipelagic country should be at the top of your dream vacation destinations
number 10. the Exquisite hotels the first step in Booking the ultimate Maldives trip is finding
the right Hotel there's no shortage of luxurious options with many hotels featuring Beachside views
green backdrops and water Bungalows the Island resorts in particular will make you feel as if
you've inherited a private Paradise while some of the hotels in the capital of Mali aren't as
secluded they still offer a lavish experience at a reasonable price wherever you stay you
can expect top-notch service it's so integral to the Maldives experience that the faculty
of hospitality and tourism studies was founded there in 1987 originally known as the school of
hotel and catering services The Faculty remains a fundamental part of the country's tourism industry
over 30 years later number nine a private getaway from California to Hawaii there are plenty of
attractive beach destinations the one downside is that those places can get overcrowded some welcome
the opportunity to meet new people but others are on vacation to get away from it all if you fall
into the latter category Maldives is the ideal fit it's not enough to just have a hotel room
or to yourself in Maldives you can book a private Villa whether you're more of a pool person or an
ocean person many Villas have visitors covered on both fronts for those traveling with a group
of friends or family members there are neighboring Villas that can accommodate a couple dozen people
it's like a little Seaside Community detached from the outside world number eight seaplane
rides since Maldives host so many remote getaways you'll find travel to be quite unique the country
notably doesn't have any Railways while there are of course roads you won't really be traveling in
taxis unless you're staying in the city if you book a trip to a distant island or Villa you'll
either need a boat or a seaplane to get you there in any case you should definitely take a seaplane
ride while visiting even if it's not to reach your destination you might not be able to visit all of
the islands that Maldives has to offer but you can absorb these turquoise encircled Beauties from up
above in one Fell Swoop it's an all-encompassing experience that you just can't have on land
number seven Family Fun Maldives will appeal to any age group providing excitement for the whole
family having every family member in your private Villa is especially convenient usually when you
go to the beach or a public pool with the family it can be an ordeal just getting everybody loaded
into the car and driving there when you're staying in a Maldives Bungalow virtually everything your
family needs is right at your disposal so it's just a matter of walking outside various Resorts
also offer kids clubs with water playgrounds and other amenities just for the little ones
if this trip is all about family bonding though there are water sports restaurants and cruises
that will bring everybody together when you're in Maldives there's no age limit on fun number six a
honeymoon High while Maldives is well suited for large groups it's tailor-made for parties of two
couples couldn't ask for a more deluxe honeymoon experience thanks to the seclusion newlyweds can
be left to enjoy the waters meals and Views with no unwelcome intrusions there's nothing
like a couple's massage on the beach followed by a private dinner against the sunset while couples
pursuing rest and relaxation will get their fill Maldives also caters to Thrill Seekers on the
prowl for adventure take a snorkeling Expedition with your significant other paddleboard across
the Crystal Blue Waters hop from Island to Island seeking out a unique experience at each stop even
if you're not on your honeymoon Maldives will stimulate anybody looking for a romantic getaway
number five swimming with sharks for the ultimate thrill Maldives delivers an opportunity to dive
with sharks there's a wide variety of more than 20 sharks to swim with from hammerhead sharks to
tiger sharks as intimidating as that may sound for some it's not like you'll be swimming with
great whites some of the species you might encounter such as ner sharks leopard sharks
and whale sharks are surprisingly peaceful since they are sharks though being in their presence is
sure to get the adrenaline pumping for those looking to just get their feet wet black tip
reef sharks are the country's most common shark and often accompany shallow Waters just remember
even when sharks are out there most laid back you should always be gentle and also dive only at your
level and with a buddy or supervision number four the cuisine widely known as divhe Cuisine
Maldives meals are defined by three key items coconuts starches and fish tuna in particular
is the most essential ingredient in some of the most delectable dishes such as Curry stuffed
chapati and the traditional maldivian breakfast of masuni you can't make masuni without coconuts
either while we can think of countless uses for coconuts in Maldives a coconut cocktail is likely
at the top of your bucket list just save room for a cassava coconut cake at the end of the day the
cuisine is only made more enticing thanks to the backdrops while your taste buds will be tantalized
no matter the location nothing tops eating under the stars or in the middle of the waters
number three Spa Heaven if you're in Maldives chances are you are there to rejuvenate a dip
in the pool or a mimosa on the beach might do it for some to drain every ounce of stress from
your body though a spa day is longer overdue Maldives provides every Spa service imaginable
from massages to saunas to exclusive healing rituals what sets Maldives apart from all of
the Spas though is the aforementioned scenery the comfort is Amplified with the ocean breeze
brushing across your face as palm trees wave in the background who needs spa music when the sound
of the ocean is right there you can even arrange a massage right on the white sand how nice is that
number two beaches and hey if you don't consider yourself a beach person that might just be because
you haven't found the right beach with sand so white that it could be mistaken for salt
and water so turquoise that they're practically otherworldly Maldives is the beach destination
for just about everyone no Instagram filters are required as every photo you take is sure
to possess a stunning backdrop the lack of crowds cuts out the added nuisance of carving out a prime
spot to lay down your towel the coldest month of the year is January with an average temperature of
around 81 Fahrenheit while the hottest month in March climbs to only 84 Fahrenheit so no matter
when you visit it's essentially perfect Beach weather all the time number one a coral reef
Adventure we already mentioned sharks but there's a whole world of fascinating marine life waiting
to be discovered in the reefs of Maldives from sea turtles to dolphins to stingrays you couldn't
ask for a more biodiverse Wonderland even if you took the fish out of the equation Maldives would
still be a diving Paradise with more than 180 Coral species making up the reefs popping with
the colors of an underwater rainbow of course blue is the most dominant color while diving
and Maldives is home to the Blue Hole which is something of an anomaly in the Indian Ocean as
glorious as Maldives is above water diving is a Fantasy Realm of Exquisite diversity and beauty
