Where should you go in the Maldives?

A group of islands in the Indian Ocean is known as the Maldives. It's made up of more than 900 small, white coral islands and atolls. The country's capital, Malé, is home to around 260,000 people.

There are two seasons in the Maldives, a dry season from November to April and a humid or wet season from May to October. During the dry season, you'll find clear blue waters and white sand beaches perfect for snorkeling!

During the wet season, you can expect lots of rain and strong winds. However, it's also when many locals take their vacations because they find it more peaceful than during other times of the year.

So what are the places to visit in Maldives? 

One popular destination is Hukuru Moo (also known as Honeymoon Island). This island is located just off the coast of Malé and is known for its beautiful beaches and clear turquoise water.

 

Another popular spot is Male City Beach where there are plenty of restaurants and bars along with some shops selling souvenirs such as locally-made jewelry from local artists who work out of their homes on this beachfront strip!
