Maldives Overview
About Maldives
Dive in deep amongst kaleidoscopic coral reefs, gliding alongside graceful manta rays and colourful parrot fish in one of the world’s most spectacular natural aquariums. Iconic in their dazzling beauty, the idyllic islands of the Maldives promise unmatched tranquillity and luxury. Scattered across the Indian Ocean, the 26 atolls of the Maldives encompass over 1,190 islands, born from ancient coral reefs.
These islands, formed around prehistoric volcanoes, offer incredible natural beauty and a relaxed pace of life. Only 200 islands are inhabited, with many turned into exclusive resorts and pristine coral reefs. The capital, Malé, situated on Motu in the North Malé Atoll, showcases the modern face of the Maldives. With colourful buildings and turquoise waters, it’s ideal for exploring markets and the National Museum.
A luxury yacht charter is the best way to experience the Maldives, island hopping and exploring crystal-clear lagoons with your experienced crew. Discover underwater caves, overhangs, and cliffs, including the famous Wreck of the Maldive Victory and Fish Head, a fantastic dive site. The Southern Atolls epitomise romance with pristine beaches and world-renowned dive sites, making them a popular yacht charter destination.
