The group of islands known as the Maldives are located geographically in the tropical belt, and have a warm climate all year. The weather is largely influenced by the Southwest and northwest monsoons which bring some rain but plenty of sunshine.
The Maldives islands accomodate some of the most diverse and amazing marine life in the world, with thousands of reefs made up of over 200 different types of coral, and as many different species of marine life you can see.
The diving at resorts such as Filitheyo offer excellent diving for all levels of ability. The Filitheyo island resort has a marine channel adjacent to each side of the island and several shallow thilas inside the atoll that cater for new and inexperienced divers.
Many people visit these islands because of their amazing and uncrowded beaches. Many island resorts, such as Filitheyo has great beaches that are unbroken all around the island offering great walks and solitude.
What is amazing about many resorts is that they have been developed with a contemporary style without compromising any of their natural beauty and tranquil charm. You will find that reception areas are generally complete with modern conveniences such as internet hotspots, but the tropical beauty of the islands are unspoilt, with tranquil accommodation and private beach areas shaded by ubiquitous tall palms and other indigenous vegetation.
Many resorts, such as Filitheyo have water villas or water bungalows and these are generally the most expensive but most luxurious accomodation and the snorkeling is always just a few steps away. At Filitheyo, the villas are very nice and comfortable but are open on each side to their neighbors so visitors who want more privacy may be better suited in either a superior or deluxe room. Some guests will arrange to split their holiday between different room types to vary the experience, check with your agent to see if this is possible before booking your trip.
Many Maldives resorts also cater specially for getting married during your holiday with wedding parties that can be pre-arranged in advance. Bandos island resort pushes the boat out, so to speak, by offering the "Kuda Bandos Sunset Wedding" featuring a traditional island ceremony complete with a private cruise for the newlyweds on a Dhoni (Maldivian boat).
