5 Reasons You Should Make the Maldives Your Next Vacation Destination
Warning: you may pack your bags and permanently move to the Maldives if you read any further. Unless you hate clear blue water, white-sand beaches, and perfect annual weather, leaving home for the tropical nation will seriously be a consideration. The Maldives stretch across the Indian Ocean with over 1,100 islands (only 185 of them are lived on), formed by 20 different island chains. Each of these atolls are made up of sand bars and live coral reefs with over 2,000 species of marine life.
It's never a bad time to make a trip to the Maldives, either. The air temperature is consistently around 86 degrees all year long, while the waters stay in the 70s and 80s. That in itself is a good enough reason to go!
See five more reasons you should visit ASAP.
