The tropical paradise of Maldives combines unrivaled luxury, stunning white sand beaches, and an amazing underwater world that all together make this a yacht charter destination of a lifetime. Located in the heart of the Indian Ocean, the archipelagic state and country is comprised of 1,192 islands that span the equator and stretch along a length of 541 miles. Boasting some of the best diving and snorkeling in the world, the clear waters of the Maldives are a magnet for anyone with an interest in marine life. The richness and variety here is simply astonishing: Imagine dazzling coral walls, magnificent caves, and schools of brightly colored tropical fish. In deeper waters, one can find manta rays, turtles, sharks, and even the world’s largest fish, the whale shark.
Your luxury charter yacht will cruise you to a variety of islands to explore lagoons, scuba dive, and snorkel. And when you need to step on terra firma, there is also a wealth of exclusive luxury resorts to visit and treat yourself to a relaxing massage, or better yet, a full spa day.
The peak season to visit Maldives is December to April, but the temperatures vary little throughout the year, making it an excellent destination for a yacht charter. Let the turquoise waters and island vibes wash over you on the adventure of a lifetime aboard your private luxury charter yacht. This is the Maldives like you’ve never experienced it before.
