Popular cities in Maldives
Malé
Malé, the capital, is also a major trade and tourism hub for the country. Despite its proximity to the airport, the city has a lower tourist density than other holiday islands; however, Malé is home to a number of culturally significant sites. Some of the capital’s highlights include the National Museum, Sultan Park, the Tsunami Monument, and Hukuru Miskiy (Malé Friday Mosque), a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Tips for traveling to the Maldives
The ideal time to visit the Maldives is usually between November and April, when the weather is warm, the skies are clear, and there’s plenty of sunshine. Demand for flights to Maldives also tends to rise during this period.
Many visitors come to the Maldives to relax and spend time on the beaches — and with good reason: the white sands and turquoise waters present an idyllic backdrop for a beach vacation. Some of the country’s best-known beaches and island settings include Hulhumalé Beach, Fulhadhoo Beach, Kandolhu Beach, and Milaidhoo.
Scuba diving and snorkeling are popular activities in the Maldives, as are swimming with whale sharks and stingrays, thanks to clear waters with visibility that extends meters deep.
Malé, the capital, is an important destination for visitors seeking to venture beyond the beaches. The capital offers a number of interesting sites and historical buildings, including palaces, mosques, museums, and parks.
Tourists who book flight tickets to the Maldives will land on Hulhulé Island and usually use transfer services to get to their holiday destination. Transfer services are generally provided by boats and seaplanes; speedboats are also used for inter-island travel.
As an archipelago, the Maldives utilizes sea transportation, including seaplanes, ferries, yachts, and the traditional fishing vessel of the Maldives, the dhoni. Land transportation options include buses, taxis, and bicycles.
The Maldives’ official language is Maldivian Divehi, but English is widely spoken, particularly in tourist areas.
The Maldives' currency is the Maldivian rupee (MVR). Credit cards are widely accepted, particularly in resorts, but it is always useful to have some cash on hand.
