Not much larger on the map than a few ink splashes by a busy cartographer, the Maldive Islands stretch from the south western tip of India all the way to the Equator. One of the most attenuated countries in the world, the 1,196 islands, in 26 distinct coral atolls, are spread over a total area of 90,000 square kilometres (about 36,000 square miles) of the Indian Ocean, yet less than 0.5 percent of this is land. Some 200 of the islands are inhabited.

Until the arrival of tourism, fishing was the main occupation in this nation of seafarers, and the relaxed pace of life seems to have carried over into the twentieth century. The graceful sailing dhonis (small craft) of old may have given way to motorised versions, but fishing with pole and line is still a common site throughout the islands.

The Maldives has the most beautiful tropical scenery, graceful coconut palms leaning over crystal-clear lagoons, coral reefs promising great snorkelling and scuba diving, and lots of sunshine. In fact, all the ingredients that make up the classic desert island. With the increasing pace of life in the modern world, it has become the ultimate getaway for those who like sun, sand, sea and doing nothing ...the last Paradise

An archipelago of 1190 islands, straddling the equator and scattered like gems across the Indian Ocean. Palm fringed islands with sparkling white beaches, turquoise lagoons and fabulous coral reefs. Clear, warm waters and magnificent marine life combine to create a water playground.

Most resorts are located on their own island, many having beach, or over-water bungalows. And the lifestyle is absolutely relaxed, with little need to worry about footwear, at any time.Here you can sunbathe, swim, snorkel, scuba, visit nearby "deserted" islands, or undertake sightseeing or fishing expeditions. The marine life is absolutely stunning and you will never tire of the innumerable species of highly-coloured fish which flit about you.

Arrangements here are usually half or full board and there is little need to worry about your next meal - resorts providing an amazing variety at their table-laden buffets.

All you need do is relax and let the pleasures of the Maldives sweep over you as you enjoy the holiday of a lifetime!
