Spoiled For Choice In The Maldives

For many tourists, the Maldives is the perfect destination to enjoy a relaxing seaside

holiday with the unspoilt beaches, the blue ocean and the luxury resorts the country has the whole package. The reason that a vacation in the Maldives feels so special is partly due to it not being packed with tourists. The country has a number of picturesque islands, so tourists can take their pick amongst them to enjoy a little bit privacy away from their hectic schedules.

The country has 1,192 islands formed from coral that make up the 26 atolls that pan out towards the northeast. The word atoll itself is taken from the Maldivian language Divehi and is now used the world over to describe an island made of coral. Therefore tourists are not limited to just one island; they can take their pick amongst the thousands and take off for a romantic evening that will never be forgotten.

The best way to visit the smaller islands is to hire a speedboat, while some of the larger islands have landing facilities for sea planes. Bear in mind though, while the larger islands may have the best resorts and restaurants, the smaller islands make up for it in privacy and untouched beauty.

The sea surrounding the islands is filled with a variety of marine life and colorful fish light up the ocean like a myriad of glittering lights. Snorkelling and diving are therefore extremely popular among visitors. In addition, other water-sports such as jet skiing, water skiing and surfing can be enjoyed on different islands. Maldives resorts can be found on many of the larger islands while the smaller ones are uninhabited and are ideal for a day trip. A luxury Maldives island resort such as Kurumba Maldives is a great base for travellers expecting to indulge in a bit of island hopping.
