40 years ago, there was no tourism on the beautiful Maldives. But times have changed and slowly but surely, the islands have been discovered. The paradise called Maldives, is a group of almost 1200 islands (many not inhabited), where one island is even prettier and more stunning than the other. Picture white powder sandy beaches, clear turquoise water with an amazing underwater landscape and hotels with an unrivaled level of luxury, surely this is as close to paradise as you can get. The food is out-of-this-world. The islands lend themselves very well to diving, snorkelling, surfing and all sorts of water sports and beach activities. The world's first underwater restaurant, under-water nightclub and underwater spa are all to be found here.
