Introduction

Maldives is an archipelago of 1190 coral islands and is home to several resorts offering spectacular over-water bungalows.

Maldives is a 90-minute flight from Bangalore, making it the perfect weekend getaway. Once you land in the capital Male, you can take a very picturesque seaplane (recommended) or speedboat to your resort. The resorts in Maldives offer excellent seafood, international cuisine and vegetarian options.

In Maldives, each resort is an entire island.The water clarity is excellent and underwater life is abundant. Here, life is stripped down to simplicity – bright blue skies, all-year sunshine and fantastic diving and snorkeling in lagoons. You can spend your afternoons at the lovely spas or cycle around the island and enjoy the fresh air.

Weather

The weather in the Maldives is usually picture perfect: sunlit days, breezy nights, balmy mornings, and iridescent sunsets. The temperature hardly ever changes – which makes packing for your holiday an easy task. With the average temperature at about 30 degrees Celsius throughout the year, the sun is a constant on most days, shining through treetops, creating lacy patterns on your feet, healing cold-bones with its warmth. Throughout the day, the sun will make itself known, ensuring that it will be remembered and missed, like an old friend, as you pack up your suitcases to leave

Maldives has two distinct seasons; dry season (northeast monsoon) and wet season (southwest monsoon), with the former extending from January to March and the latter from mid-May to November.
