The Maldives
An hour’s flight from Sri Lanka is the stunning republic of the Maldives, this Indian ocean nation is made up of 26 coral atolls, with 1192 islands of which only 250 are inhabited.
To put it simply the Maldives are breathtaking. We have all seen picture postcards of pure white sand beaches, aquamarine waters framed with the bright green of coconut palms, everywhere you look is a postcard moment on these magnificent atolls, the visual beauty of this archipelago will take your breath away from the moment you commence your descent into Male international airport.
For the lover of sun, sand and blue water, well all we can say is that the Maldives is as close to heaven on earth as you can hope to find.
Most resorts in the Maldives occupy their own private island and accessed either by a speedboat journey or by seaplane, once on shore the stresses of real world will melt away into the dazzle of white sand, blue water and a cool saltwater breeze, there is nothing to do here but unwind, relax and enjoy the pleasures of the island you have chosen for your stay.
