Maldives Resorts: Perfect Holiday Destination


Maldives is a cluster of 1190 coral islands in a double chain of 26 natural ring-like atolls, which spread over 90,000 square kilometers. These islands are embedded in the heart of the Indian Ocean, where the reefs of the islands are alive with an uncountable number of different types of underwater creatures and vivacious corals which protect the islands from wave action of the surrounding water bodies. The atolls are mainly composed of live coral reefs and sand bars that rise abruptly from the depths of the India Ocean and runs north to south. These atolls are formed from coral structures, separated by lagoons. The atolls are in fact a part of a greater structure called Laccadives-Chagos Ridge, which stretches over 2000 kilometers.

No more than 200 islands are inhabited whereas the rest includes tourist resorts and uninhabited islands. None of these islands are more than six feet above sea level and they lie 73 degrees east Equator. The capital Male’ is located in the middle of the atoll chain, which is the busiest island buzzing with exciting activities of about 75,000 people which is one third of the population of this country. The Republic of Maldives witnesses the combination of striking beaches, crystal clear waters and the beautiful blue sky which makes the whole ambiance tranquil and calm.

The warm seas of Maldives have high visibility throughout the year; with water, apparent enough to see the passing fish as far as fifty meters away at times. Add to that the spectacular formation of over 3000 coral reefs and the free-flowing tides of the monsoons. The result of these perfect conditions has created one of the world’s richest diving coral reef areas. The abundance of amazing white sand beaches, coral reefs, clear warm waters, many scuba diving sites and rich marine life has caused Maldives to become one of the world’s premier scuba diving destinations.

The most amazing thing is that you don’t have to be a professional diver to enjoy Maldives. Maldives resorts have diving centers which give you basic to advanced training using well-monitored diving facilities of a high standard. Even the most hesitant diver can enjoy the Maldivian underwater beauty on a drift drive with the guidance of experienced dive instructors. Leaving Maldives without having some fun in waters means that you are missing the best part of it. Experiencing the crystal-clear waters of the Indian Ocean, its colorful underwater world, mind-boggling variety of fish is the reason divers believe that this is a little piece of paradise. From whale sharks to manta rays, moray eels to white tip reef sharks; you can have face-to-face encounters with the most magnificent marine creatures.

Famous diving spots include the Banana Reef, The Broken Rock and also, The Cocoa corner. Whereas, Dhevana Kandu is a top dive site in the Maldives, known for its excellent coral growth and abundant marine life, Fesdhoo Wreck dive site is a very famous shipwreck dive in the Maldives. These two places are also well known for its underwater beauty and a good place for diving. 
Thus, I believe that everyone who visits Maldives should at least spend a day exploring this stunning underwater heaven.
