Maldives Weather
The Maldives has a tropical climate, meaning it has a drier season and a rainy season. The best time to visit is in the middle of the dry season, between December and March. The average temperature at this time of year is 29°C, meaning you get that lovely warmth without it being overwhelmingly hot. Between May and October is the rainy season, with average temperatures of 27°C. September is the wettest month – you can still visit The Maldives at this time, you might just need to pack your brolly alongside your sun cream.Things To Do on Maldives Holidays
Go on a snorkelling safariWith warm, clear water and plenty of coral reefs to explore, the Indian Ocean is the perfect place to snorkel. Stay in the shallows by the shore and see what you can spot – you never know, you might just find Nemo. For something really special, book a guided excursion through your hotel or an official tourist information point - they’ll take you to some worthwhile snorkel spots. From colourful fish to manta rays, there really is no better way to explore what’s under the water. Keep an eye out for sea turtles too, they’ve been known to be just as curious as you are. Visit a man-made beachDon’t let the name of Artificial Beach put you off. This stretch of shore started to disappear into the sea so - in order to rescue Malé’s most popular bay – the beach was reclaimed using breakwaters to shelter the sand. Technically man-made, but offering all the natural beauty that The Maldives is famous for, this is the only place in the island capital to paddle, dip or swim safely. A social place for locals as well as holidaymakers, you may even stumble upon one of the many concerts and carnivals that are held here throughout the dry season.View the islands from the airThe Maldives’ main travel hub is Velana International Airport, which is located in Malé. If you’re staying on an island resort outside of the capital city, then by far the best way to island-hop is by seaplane. Not only do you arrive to your hotel in style, the views over the Indian Ocean as you fly through the sky are unparalleled. See how many shades of blue you can spot – the clear turquoise of the shallows, the inviting hue of the reef-studded water and the royal blue of the deeper water. Getting an aerial view of the islands really shows how tranquil and secluded your stay in The Maldives will be.Just relaxWhether you’re travelling to The Maldives to celebrate a special occasion, or simply to experience a paradise island or two for yourself, the chances are that you chose this destination for its peacefulness. Busy working weeks and hectic home schedules can make it hard to spend quality time with your loved ones. So why not kick off your shoes and go barefoot on the beach? Get back to nature as you stretch out contentedly on a sun lounger and reconnect with your partner or family in the most laid back place on Earth. There’s nothing like doing nothing to make you feel well-rested and serene – and the beautiful scenery doesn’t hurt either.Book a Maldives Holiday now!
