Before travelling to any new destination, it’s always better to know about it and get familiar with its traditions and norms. Follow this advice before you travel to the Maldives as well.
The culture of the Maldives
Keep in mind that the Maldives is a Muslim country. No matter where you are from, you will have to respect their beliefs and rituals when in the Maldives.
The way to dress
Since you are just a traveller, the Maldives respects your freedom. You don’t have to wear their national attire, but make sure what you wear is decent enough.
Prohibitions
The Maldives does not allow anyone (not even foreign travellers) to consume pork. Drugs are also prohibited, and alcohol too. However, you may consume alcohol at every licensed Maldives restaurant and hotel.
Choosing your hotel
You may leisurely enjoy your vacation at a property the likes of OZEN Life Maadhoo. Make sure you book your stay online much in advance, especially if you plan to visit the Maldives during peak season.
Island hopping
Island hopping is a great activity to do in the Maldives, but it can sometimes be extra costly. Go island hopping (to a local island, maybe) if you are on an extended holiday.
