Why this trip
Maafushi is an island of the Maldives where locals live, and you notice it: there are cafés, small shops and a beach where visitors and residents both have room. That suits couples and families who want to see everyday life in the Maldives without giving up seclusion entirely. At Maafushi Beach and Sunrise Beach you swim according to the rules of the island, at Bikini Beach you may appear in a swimsuit, at No Bikini Beach other rules apply. With Seamonkey Maldives or Maldives Fellas Excursions you travel to a coral garden, a sandbank or the Vahmaafushi Picnic Island, where a picnic takes place on the beach.
If you are looking for a quieter resort, the catalogue lists Naladhu Private Island, Ozen Life Maadhoo, Six Senses Laamu and Ozen Reserve Bolifushi. The months from November to April bring calm water and good visibility for snorkelling. Malé is close, reachable by speedboat, Dhigurah and Addu lie further away. In a video call, Island Escapes clarifies with you whether an inhabited island or a resort of your own better matches your wish for privacy.
