1 day in Maldives Itinerary

The tiny but densely populated city of Male represents a contrast to the laid-back beach resorts found in much of the rest of the Maldives.

Kick off your visit on the 23rd (Thu): browse the exhibits of National Museum, then browse the eclectic array of goods at Male Fish Market, and then discover the deep blue sea with a scuba or snorkeling tour.
