The group of islands known as the Maldives are located geographically in the tropical belt, and have a warm climate all year. The weather is largely influenced by the Southwest and northwest monsoons which bring some rain but plenty of sunshine.

The Maldives are home to some of the most amazing marine life in the world, with thousands of reefs, many different species of coral, and as many different species of fish and marine mammals you are ever likely to see in 1 place.

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.

Many people visit these islands because of their amazing and uncrowded beaches. Many island resorts, such as Filitheyo has great beaches that are unbroken all around the island offering great walks and solitude.

The natural beauty and tranquil charm of most Maldivian island resorts cannot be over-stated. You will find quiet private accommodation and private beach areas shaded by ubiquitous tall palms and other plants.

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 a wedding then the can be no other more romantic setting than a Maldivina island to make your event special, many resorts offering special traditional island ceremonies complete with cultural costumes and Maldivian drums.
