MALDIVES

...perhaps the most beautiful island nation on the earth !!!

Maldives, a tiny county on Indian Ocean is honeymooner’s delight. Maldives is divided into 26 ring-shaped atolls made up of more than 1000 coral islands, better known for its crystal clear blue lagoons, ocean beds, reefs and superb beaches. The Maldives lies in two rows of atolls in the Indian Ocean, just across the equator. The country is made up of 1,190 coral islands formed around 26 natural ring-like atolls, spread over 90,000 square kilometers. Ninety-nine percent of the Maldives is made up of sea. The people of the islands are widely dispersed across the atolls, with about 200 inhabited islands. About 90 islands are developed as tourist resort and the rest are uninhabited or used for agriculture and other livelihood purposes.
