It is said that the Maldives has "redefined paradise". The pictures of the Maldives seem to encapsulate the imagination of an ideal summer of any tourist. The familiar image of the Maldives is the immense coconut groves embracing the fine white sand, the deep blue sky, the water ripples with small waves but still so clear that you can see through to the bottom, the luxury resorts are floating. on the sea... In the Maldives you can find all activities related to sea tourism.

The Maldives is a paradise on the sea with more than a thousand islands. Famous for the beauty of its beaches and seabed, calm lagoons with translucent and warm waters, multicolored fish, heavenly beaches, coral reefs. Diving and snorkeling are the two main activities of the Maldives. The locals, who live mainly from fishing, will make you discover their magnificent islands aboard traditional wooden boats.

Going to the Maldives. To prepare for your trip, a few questions to check off in your guide: hotel or a whole cruise itinerary? water sports or Zen? On the water rather than underwater? A single island or several? If you're a concrete walker, a trail hiker, a museum pillar, or a market gleaner, you'll want to move on. This is the domain of the sea, and of a little sand to rest on when you leave it.

1199 islands, stretching over 800 kilometers long, between the Arabian Sea and the Laquedive Sea, mostly uninhabited, or with just your host on it. Nothing to see in the Maldives? Just put your head underwater, with a mask and a snorkel, the underwater ballet is enchanting.

And for scuba divers, some of the most beautiful spots in the world: the Victory wreck on North Male, the manta ray cleaning station on South Male. Discover also the less frequented sites: the dives in the Northern atolls, or in the Baa-Raa atolls, or Olhugiri Kandu, in the South of the archipelago. Welcome to the world of water.
