Travel Tips
While the Maldives is a year-round tropical destination, the rainy season occurs from May to August. To make the most of your trip, plan for a minimum of 10 nights away from home, including travel time. Consider breaking up the journey with an overnight stop en route or extending your stay to explore nearby countries like Thailand, India, or Sri Lanka.
