Male island
Ultimate guide (November 2024)
Male is the capital island of Maldives,
North Male atoll. There are not too many attractions, but good public beach is available (
Male artificial beach). It is very scenic and comfortable. Please keep in mind, that women are not allowed to appear on the beach in a bikini, but with pareo - it will be Ok. Shore and seabed: sand.

How to get there [edit]
Fly to Maldives to
Male International Airport (MLE). Next get by Hulhule-Male ferry and walk to the beach for about 10 minutes.
When to go [edit]
The best time for a holiday in Male is a dry period in the winter half of the year.
