21 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT MALDIVAL ISLANDS

1. How many islands do you have in the Maldives
   The Maldives is a Muslim country located in southern Asia, just below Sri Lanka and India. It is an archipelago composed of 1,190 islands, of which only about 200 are inhabited.

2. What are the islands like in the Maldives
   There are 2 types of islands inhabited in the Maldives: the private ones (which are the resorts) and the native ones (where the locals live). You can stay in both, depending on your travel style, and of course, your pocket.

3. Where is the Maldives airport located?
   Ibrahim Nasir International Airport, also known as Male International Airport, is on the island of Hulhulé in the north of Male, the capital of the Maldives Islands.

4. How to get to the Maldives
   To reach the other islands, you can go by plane or boat. The first option is usually chosen by those who go to resorts on private islands. Depending on the distance, the stretch varies between $ 150 to $ 500. The second option can be a public ferry (to the islands closest to the capital) or a speed boat, a fast boat that serves the most distant islands. The price varies between 20 and 70 dollars on trips of 30 minutes to 2 hours.

5. Natural attractions
   In terms of natural attractions, the northern part of the Maldives is very popular with divers who want to see tiger sharks. The southern part is the region of whale sharks and manta rays, which are in this area all year round.

6. Surfing in the Maldives
   For those looking to surf, the best time is between February and October. As there are several islands between north, center, and south, take a look at the Surf Trips website for more detailed information.

7. Visa for the Maldives
   For Brazilians, entering the country does not require a visa when the period of stay is less than 30 days. However, the passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the date of travel, and it is necessary to present the vaccination certificate

8. Alcoholic drink in the Maldives
   The consumption and sale of alcohol are not allowed. The only places to drink in the Maldives are at resorts and party boats. You do not need to be staying at them, as there is the possibility of daily use, if applicable.

9. Car in the Maldives
   The islands are small and, in most cases, in just a few minutes you can walk around. Apart from the boats, you don't need public transport or car rental, for example.

10. What to do in the Maldives
    The main activities for tourists are taking advantage of the beautiful beaches, snorkeling, diving, boat trips, canoeing and stand up, for example.

11. Internet in the Maldives
    Aside from the hotel's Wi-Fi, it is SUPER POSSIBLE to stay connected to the beaches. I don't like to travel and be dependent on wifi, because, in addition to running the risk of not working, I'm restricted to places. I always travel online and arrive in countries with the chip on my cell phone. I indicate the Easysim4u internet that kept me connected throughout my trip, even when I went out to sea to dive and snorkel. That is, it was a hand on the wheel!

12. Cheap hotels in the Maldives
    Finding cheap hotels is possible YES. To do this, just look for guesthouses on the native islands. Some of them already have food included and many offer style and comfort. See which island you plan to stay on and take a look at booking.com alternatives. By booking through the Blog links you can help keep it up! All content here is free, we need your help.
    

13. When to go to the Maldives Islands
    The best time to visit the Malvinas is between December and April, a time of little rain and an even clearer sea. From May to October, it is more likely to have rain, but on the other hand, it is much cheaper to travel there.

14. Money in the Maldives
    The local currency is the Maldives Rupee, but the dollar is accepted in all establishments and your change will probably be delivered in Rupees.

15. Language in the Maldives
    The official language is Maldivian, but most islands have people who also speak English. In the native islands you will find people who do not speak, but to carry out shopping, tours, and arrangements, there is always someone more prepared in English.

16. Time Zone
    The Maldives Islands have 8 hours more than Brazil and in the summertime, the difference drops to 7 hours.

17. Tax on the Maldives Islands
    In everything you consume in hotels, a fee (10%) and tax (12%) are charged, totaling 22% more.

18. Garbage in the Maldives
    The issue of garbage in the Maldives is a very delicate one. It is very complicated to manage what is produced from the garbage in the resorts and also by the population. Special attention is paid to the collection of all your garbage, and if you can help with the collection of bottles and plastics on the beach, all help is welcome.

19. Drone in the Maldives
    In some places, the use of drones is prohibited, so if you are going to use it, first check whether or not you can fly with yours.

20. Security in the Maldives
    Whether in the Maldives or anywhere in the world, it is ALWAYS important to travel back. Getting sick in another country, needing medical attention, medicine or even being stolen or having lost luggage, is not in any traveler's plans. I, who am always traveling, know the headache this can give us. Since I went through a few squeezes with inflammation of the throat and lost baggage years ago, now I always travel with good travel insurance, as it is essential to ensure my safety. Be sure to also do this on your way to the Maldives. I recommend the insurance searcher Seguros Pomo, they offer very interesting plans at incredible prices. I still get a 5% discount on any plan you choose with the LEVENAVIAGEM5 coupon. Be smart and go safe!

21. How long to stay in the Maldives
    A week is more than enough to enjoy paradise. If you have the chance, visit more than one island; it is interesting to see the local diversity and the beauty of similar beaches, but at the same time different. The Maldives Islands are phenomenal and undoubtedly one of the most WONDERFUL destinations on this planet Earth.
