The Maldives coral island atolls are located in the tropics, are influenced by monsoons but enjoy a lovely sunny climate and are warm all year round.
The islands of the Maldives host some of the most diverse marine life to be seen on our planet, and it is therefore no wonder that they have become a center of excellence for snorkeling and diving alike.
Resorts such as Bandos and Filitheyo island offer diving for all abilities and snorkeling trips are scheduled on a daily basis from the diving center to the many surrounding reefs.
The beaches on most Maldives islands are some of the most amazing in the world. At the Filitheyo island resort for example, the superb beaches are unbroken on each side of the island offering great walks and views and furthermore these beaches are definately not crowded.
What is amazing about many resorts is that they have been developed with a contemporary style without compromising any of their natural beauty and tranquil charm. You will find that reception areas are generally complete with modern conveniences such as internet hotspots, but the tropical beauty of the islands are unspoilt, with tranquil accommodation and private beach areas shaded by ubiquitous tall palms and other indigenous vegetation.
Many resorts, such as Filitheyo have water villas or water bungalows and these are generally the most expensive but most luxurious accomodation and the snorkeling is always just a few steps away. At Filitheyo, the villas are very nice and comfortable but are open on each side to their neighbors so visitors who want more privacy may be better suited in either a superior or deluxe room. Some guests will arrange to split their holiday between different room types to vary the experience, check with your agent to see if this is possible before booking your trip.
If you are planning on getting married during your holiday to the Maldives then many resorts offer special wedding plans that can be arranged in advance. At Bandos for example, the resort accomodates visitors getting married with the "Kuda Bandos Sunset Wedding" which features a taste of traditional island ceremony with cultural costumes, Maldivian drums and a private cruise for the newlyweds on a Dhoni (Maldivian boat).
