General -
Maldivian resorts are self-contained units built on uninhabited
islands, each island being just one resort. These resorts
have their own amenities and facilities to provide tourists
a perfect holiday.
There are certain set standards when islands are planned
for tourism development. In every resort island that is
developed the building area should not exceed twenty percent
of the total land area of the island. The buildings should
not rise above the vegetation line. All guest rooms built
should have five linear metres of beach in front.
The Maldives is famed for its rare underwater beauty.
The profusion of psychedelic colours and the abundance
and variety of life underwater have fascinated divers
and snorkellers since Maldives was discovered as a diving
destination.
The highest level of visibility that one could expect-
sometimes exceeding 50 metres - and warm temperatures
throughout the year makes diving in the Maldives a delight
you would want to experience over and over again.
The Maldives has some of the best dive sites in the world
and many visit the Maldives repeatedly for the sole purpose
of diving. |
