Seven Days in the Maldives Shattered My Spending Perspective

The Maldives is truly a breathtakingly beautiful holiday paradise! 🏖️ With its azure seas, pristine white beaches, and overwater villas, it's the dream vacation destination. Must-visit spots📍: 1. Malé City 🏙️ Explore the local markets and experience the Maldivian way of life. 2. Huvafen Fushi 🌺 Famous for its overwater villas and underwater restaurant where you can dine while watching fish swim by. 3. Dhigurah Island 🏝️ The beach sand is incredibly fine, and the water is crystal clear—perfect for sunbathing and playing in the sand. 4. Grand Central Island 🏖️ Excellent snorkeling spots where you can see colorful fish and coral. 5. Fairy Reef Island 🐠 A larger island with a peaceful environment, ideal for travelers seeking tranquility away from the crowds. 6. Manadhoo Island 🌅 A great place to watch the sunset—the beach at dusk is absolutely stunning. 7. Vaadhoo Island 🏊 Rich in water activities including boating, surfing, and dolphin watching excursions. 8. Baros Island 🐢 Opportunities to see sea turtles, with exceptionally well-preserved natural ecology. Food recommendations🍽️: • Seafood feast 🦞: Various fresh fish, shrimp, and crab that you won't be able to stop eating. • Coconut rice 🥥: Rich coconut flavor with a unique texture. • Curry chicken 🍛: Maldivian curry is very flavorful and pairs perfectly with chicken. • Grilled fish 🐟: Freshly caught fish grilled to fragrant perfection—absolutely delicious. Transportation✈️: Generally, you'll first fly to Malé International Airport, then transfer to your resort island via seaplane or speedboat. Accommodation🏡: The Maldives is famous for its overwater villas—be sure to book in advance if you want to experience them. Beach villas are also available and offer an excellent environment. Tips💡: • The Maldives is an Islamic country, so remember to respect local religious customs. • Be sure to bring sunscreen and a sun hat, as the sunshine here is quite intense. • Exchange local currency in advance. While credit cards are accepted in many places, it's safer to have some cash on hand.
