The Maldives - Paradise of luxury and nature
At the heart of the Indian Ocean, the Maldives between blue skies and turquoise water proved a paradise. Everything is green and quiet luxury that invites you to relax.
Discovery ...
The plane begins its descent to the Maldives, and now, a few minutes before landing, through the window striking palette contrasts observed between extreme deep blue and green and turquoise water.
The aircraft touched down gently on the runway ... Time to retrieve his luggage on the carpet from Male airport to the boat that takes you to the island you choose, there is only one step.
An exceptional environment ...
On leaving the airport, a man holding a sign with your name leads you in two minutes to a dock where the yachts are moored which carry you to your hotel as a billionaire.
Seized by the heat that already prevails at 8am, you're in for a boat trip which can vary depending on the distance from the airport to your resort, between 20 minutes and 1 hour 30 Soon, you leave behind the capital Malé and the many cargo ships that dock nearby. Then we enter a world where thousands of colorful fish undulate.
This is stunning, you feel the Maldives carry the passenger on one of the last paradises on earth. The destination attracts a growing tourism but retains a unique environment due to the vigilance of the Maldivian state in ecology and the hotel groups.
Reasoned tourism ...
The mild climate, beautiful landscapes, lagoons, underwater that have flora and fauna unmatched allowed the development of tourism since the 1980s ... but reasoned. The government authorized the construction of the hotels on deserted islands.
In the Maldives, there are 1,200 islands with a hundred dedicated to tourism. Raising consecutive waters to global warming is a particularly serious threat to this small country whose highest point is less than three meters. Ten islands play the card of ultimate luxury on the concept: an island hotel.
Suddenly, our eyes are drawn to houses on stilts and a sandbar.
Here we are, we live a daydream. Nothing is missing from the postcard. Restaurants on stilts. Near the pier stands the dive center, and on the dock with some combination of them tanned and flippers are going to rave about the seabed.
Exploration lagoons, fine hotels ...
Time to drink a welcome drink ... and we discover with pleasure his home on the water. A real house with a living room, a bedroom, a large bathroom, an outdoor shower and a private plunge pool on the terrace.
To eat is spoiled for choice. Buffets found the internationally themed dishes Japanese, Chinese, Thai ... In the evening, we take our dinner on the beach, candlelight. Nothing is missing on the map, fine food whose ingredients came across this little piece of land it is unclear how. It serves meats, seafood, accompanied by a good Australian wine, South African, Italian or French local fish.
There is still an activity in which it is impossible to derogate: massage. A must for the Spa which is generally suspended above the water. What to choose, one is spoiled for choice, it becomes an exercise in high concentration: moderate Thai, a deep massage, ayurvedic or shiatsu.
You can not design a stay in the Maldives to try diving. Baptisms for amateurs prepare with an instructor who teaches blow, removing the mask in water, change of regulator. It requires some attention but quickly becomes autonomous.
And we take a boat that takes you to a special place. In less than ten minutes, you end up in the ocean. But it is also easy to observe wildlife and marine life so exceptional practicing "snorkeling" with mask, fins, snorkel. On the surface of the water, moves with small sharks, manta rays, some moray eels, starfish, turtles, striped, go-getters, madmen, placid ... Man and fish coexist perfectly, they seem to have fun with you.
Come on, go ahead, don the role of Robinson Crusoe in the heart of islands and lagoons so well preserved.
