Frequently Asked Questions
Which beaches and coves are the best in the Maldives?
Maafushi's public bikini beach is the easiest pick for independent travelers, with turquoise water and a reef that begins right at your feet. Hulhumale's long sandbar is lovely for sunset strolls, and dive and snorkel trips push off from nearly every island.
When is the best time to swim and snorkel?
November, December and January sit at the heart of the dry season: clear water, calm seas, and the sharpest visibility on the reef. These months are the sweet spot for both swimming and snorkeling.
How long is the flight from Istanbul, and where do fares start?
Total journey time depends on the airports and connections. Check the total duration of your selected service in the search results, and allow separately for connection waits and airport transfers.
Do I need a visa for the Maldives?
No advance visa needed. A free tourist permit is issued on arrival; just have your return ticket and accommodation details ready.
