For those living in landlocked countries or states, experiencing life on an island can be exciting. Paradise is often described with allusions to lush forestry and sunny skies for a reason and it is therefore no surprise that many the Maldivian islands are often called Paradise. The Republic of Maldives lies upon the modern remains of coral reefs that surrounded ancient volcanoes. With the evolution of Earth, the volcanoes sank into the sea, yet left behind the reefs that are now known as the islands of Maldives. This natural miracle has paved the way for extremely scenic views and iconic holidays in the sun that attract tourists from all over the world to its beautiful shores.
While lounging by the ocean, soaking up the golden rays of the sun is sufficient for some, for others who crave to experience the diversity and many facets of the Maldivian culture, things to do in Maldives are limitless.
