On May 8, 21, I went to Maldives for my honeymoon together.

I wish you a happy wedding and a happy honeymoon

Let me give you a guide when I go to the sack. I wish you a pleasant journey:

Maldives is located in the waters south of Sri Lanka and is known as the last paradise on earth in the Indian Ocean. It is hard for people who have read The Story of McDull not to fall in love with this island country with McDull: "There are coconut trees and shadows, clear water and young sand."

Yes

There are three airlines going to Maldives: Singapore Airlines, Malaysia Airlines and Singapore Airlines. If you choose Singapore Airlines, you can have a good rest on your limbs during your connecting flight and take a half-day tour in Lion City. However, Singapore Airlines needs to stop in Bangkok for 4 minutes, and then transfer in Colombo for another 3 hours.

The transportation between Maldivian airport and various islands is Doni boat, speedboat and seaplane. If seasick guests had better prepare some motion sickness medicine, when the wind and waves are strong, Doni boats and speedboats will be very bumpy, but they are also very exciting.

In Maldives, only the capital, Male, can use cars. In Male, taxis are charged by the time, with 15 rupees each time for less than 4 people and 5 rupees for each piece of luggage. On many islands, there are only battery cars. If you tip the waiters, they will be happy to give you a ride.

Accommodation

Regarding hotel reservation, if you really want to go, it is better to make a reservation six months in advance. Because if you book too early, the general hotel price hasn't come out yet. If you book too late, it's very likely that the hotel you want to go to has been fully booked. So keep an eye on the price and room.

Maldives is an island hotel, depending on whether you want to live in a beach house or a water house, an outdoor private bathroom or an indoor bathtub. Is it a quaint room or a luxurious room? There are several websites that are hotel agents in Maldives, and they still have advantages in price. Their Asian customer service center is in Thailand and provides Chinese service. If English is not good, this is a good choice. The price of each agent is different for each hotel. If you decide to go to a certain island, I advise you to find more agents.

of course, hotels are expensive. The cheapest island should be about US$16 for a night, and the cheapest water house should be US$3. Of course, with the change of seasons, hotel prices will also change. The order of prices from high to low is as follows:

12/22~1/4, Christmas and New Year, the highest price in the whole year.

1/5~4/3, which is not rainy season, stops after Easter in the third week of April every year.

from 11/1 to 12/21, the rainy season is getting farther away, the wind and waves are receding, the peak season is coming, and the price is rising.

7/21~8/2, during the rainy season, the price rose slightly due to the continuous vacation of Europeans.

from 8/21 to 1/31, at the end of the rainy season, the price was still low.

5/1~7/2, the early rainy season, the lowest price period of the year.

if you choose a hotel and an agent, you must have a dual-currency credit card before making a formal reservation, no matter which bank, as long as it provides dual-currency service. Because now, after the online reservation is confirmed, the hotel agent will ask for your credit card authorization, so that they can deduct your hotel expenses from the credit card and hand them over to the hotel you booked. Because all hotels in Maldives are required to deliver the reserved rooms in full, it is especially important to pay attention to this. Therefore, the date must be decided before authorizing the deduction, because once the authorization is confirmed, it cannot be changed. If the change is made, a fine will be deducted according to the interval between your change date and the check-in date. Generally, the closer the two are, the more they will be deducted, and the full amount will be confiscated within 15 days. Because during the period of your reservation, the hotel may cancel many guests' reservations for you.

Personally, fullmoon's house is the best, although the houses on paradise, kulumba and kuda bandos are also great, with red tiles and white walls, which are exquisite, but more like hotels, with obvious artificial traces. Full moon's house, whether it's beach bungalow, water villa or water suite, has a thatched roof, which is very rural and relaxed, and the equipment decoration inside is readily available. What's more special is that there is a big conch at the head of the bed, a ceiling fan full of amorous feelings, and an outdoor shower head ... < P > We stayed for four nights, booked the beach bungalow through Ctrip, and went out to the beach. White bath towels in the hotel should not be taken to the beach, while green ones are for the beach.

on p>Full Moon, two bottles of fresh water (***1 liter) will be provided for you to make tea and coffee on the first day of your stay, and each room will be provided with an electric cup, so just boil the water. Tap water on the island should be formed after seawater desalination, so drinking water should still be burned with mineral water. Friends who like to drink China tea don't forget to bring a pot of tea. It's really an excellent enjoyment to watch the sea and enjoy tea.

Travel equipment

A. Essential for snorkeling and swimming: mask, breathing tube and flippers. You can also rent it on the island, with a full set of rent of $12 a day and $7 for half a day, or rent it separately;

B. goggles, swimming caps, earplugs and diving shoes. Goggles and caps can be worn according to personal needs, but earplugs and diving shoes must be worn, especially diving shoes. It's only good and not bad to wear them! There are many marine corals in Maldives, especially those who live in water houses, and they go into the water directly from the house, which is very painful

C. Bikini, swimsuit, swimming trunks and short-sleeved T-shirts. Usually, girls must wear bikinis when swimming in the sea. Most people there swim in bikinis, and only some older foreign women will wear one-piece swimsuits. When snorkeling, girls must wear swimsuits (the more body parts are covered, the better, and large-scale sunburn can be absolutely prevented). Snorkeling is for viewing fish, not for their own beauty. Boys must not only wear swimming trunks, but also wear a T-shirt on their upper bodies. The sun there is very poisonous.

D. gown and trousers, pure cotton casual clothes, straw hats, sunglasses, beach shoes, sports shoes (socks), skirts, underwear and pajamas. Long gowns, trousers and sports shoes (socks) are necessary on the plane. It is cold on the plane and it takes a long time to sit. Although blankets are provided, I always feel that blankets have a strange smell.

e. straw hat, sunglasses and sandals. Needless to say, this is a must for the beach. In addition, girls should wear sun hats to further prevent their faces from being tanned.

F. Digital cameras (batteries, chargers), underwater cameras, tripods (which are very smart for taking photos and night scenes), mobile phones (batteries, chargers), digital companions (we took our notebooks with us to see the photos, hehe), backpacks, money (. It's best to tip from zero to one dollar), passport, airline ticket, and carry-on bag

g. mosquito-repellent incense tablets, toilet water, toothpaste, wet paper towels, combs (headbands), razors, contact lenses, sunscreen, after-sun repair, facial cleanser, slippers, snacks and tea. In addition, water is mentioned in many raiders. In fact, I think it is really unnecessary. Although the water there is $3 a bottle, a large bottle of water is 1.5L, equivalent to RMB 8 yuan /5ml, which is not much more expensive than our tourist area! Moreover, the hotel sends a large bottle of water every day. Personally, I don't think it is necessary to carry the water so heavily. Water, metal products and food should all be checked! )

H. Thermometer, alcohol cotton, wind oil essence, band-aid, eye drops, berberine, Contac, stomach medicine

The beauty of Maldives is well-known, and the official evaluation of National Tourism Administration is "If you have many opportunities to travel abroad in your life, you must come to Maldives; If you only have one chance to travel abroad in your life, then you have to come to Maldives. "

Paradise Island is only a 2-minute ferry ride from Male International Airport. When I set foot on Paradise Island, it was already dark, with dense nights, lush forests and secluded paths. Easily put on shorts and sandals, and walked to the seaside. The shadows of trees are dancing, the waves are patting, and the beach is light gray in the night, which is very delicate. Not far from the lights, dozens of small blue crabs are chasing each other, running sideways as light as the wind ... The lights of the trestle are gentle, and there are pairs of figures lingering. The sea is rippling under the light, and the long fish come and go, wandering leisurely.

The air is wet, washing the heart and lungs from afar.

When I woke up, the sun was shining brightly. It took me 45 minutes to walk around Paradise Island, which was shaped like a single-celled paramecium. More than 2 rooms facing the sea are hidden between huge coconut groves and plantains with broad leaves. Light green and green alternate with each other, which is full of vitality. There are all kinds of shaped gravel, slate and fine sand paths between houses, which bend and refract to the seaside. The sun is hot, but there are still many strong men and plump beautiful women in Europe. I don't know what sunscreen they put on, or just "insolate" on the dazzling white beach. That kind of delight really makes people envy.

A group of white, black-kissed long-legged birds passed by them, pecking at small fish and crabs at the junction of the beach and the sea not far away. This is the bird of paradise. Looking at the sea, it looks like a huge satin: light green, light blue, lake green, and finally deep blue. Pairs of "shallow" people stretched out their white, light red and dark brown bodies on this satin, adding many touching petals to this huge satin with blue as the keynote.

when we arrived at Sun Island, the sun was shining. Actually, I stayed in the world-famous Water Bungalow. The long trestle is Y-shaped, and nearly 1 villas have been built in shallow waters. The sea breeze is blowing gently, and the air is wet and filled with faint flowers. Sun Island is only a few degrees south of the equatorial line. The calm shallow bay, like a pure girl, greets us affectionately.

The beach is naturally the favorite of couples and couples. Old friends and new friends gather under the umbrella of palm leaves, beside the bar by the pool; Chatting and joking ... The handsome guys and beautiful women who are unwilling to be lonely rush to the sea or sail or dive into the sea until they are proud of the tan of the real Maldivian.

At dusk, the sun was slightly hot, and I went fishing in two tall Dhonis boats. You don't need to learn, put a fresh tuna on the iron fishing line and throw it into the sea for 3-5 meters. Ten times, it is guaranteed that the chubby grouper will be caught five times. Since fishing is not allowed within 2 km around any island in Maldives, this is the law, so the fish here must take a bite if there is a hook and meat, even if it is fatal, it is still "fishing before". The Indian Ocean is so kind to Maldives. On the beach at night, the candlelight is dancing, and the real Maldivian-style feast begins: fried fish balls, crispy and tender; Tuna and sashimi; Delicious and unusual. Spicy fish cake (Kvli Boakiba) Foni Boakiba with coconut milk and white rice pudding drinks its Kirvsarbat sweet milk; Countless until the belly is like a drum, and finally a large cup of Toddy squeezed from palm trunks is really satisfying.

Royal Island has a magical luxury, and the current Russian President Vladimir Putin and his wife once lingered on this island for a few days.

There are more than 12 houses in the building, all of which are refined from Indonesian mahogany. Indonesian mahogany, which is salt-resistant, insect-free, fine in texture and simple and noble, has made Royal Island famous all over the world and become the first choice for world celebrities and tycoons to take vacations. The SPA here has the reputation of India's mystery and modern variety of plant essences, and it also has superb techniques: steady, accurate, rolling, weighing, beating, scratching, rubbing, cutting, etc., and the acupuncture techniques are really enjoyable!

the sea breeze whirls here. Suitable for water sports such as windsurfing and snorkeling, especially windsurfing, which has been played by nobles since its birth. A pair of sails costs at least tens of thousands of dollars. Sail with the wind at sea, sail in fashion, and use your strength to make a ship fly like an arrow. However, a slight misjudgment of the wind power will immediately lead to a "trip over the horse", but the challenge of windsurfing is addictive here ... < P > Because it is north of the equator, the sun has not moved to the north in March. At this time of the Royal Island, the cool breeze is blowing gently, which makes people feel most taoran. The sun is not hot, and there are many red bean trees towering 3 meters on the island; The shade is like a cover; Where to go; Any place; It's all indescribable comfort ...

Holiday Island is a paradise for divers. Maldives is one of the three largest diving resorts in the world, and the license issued by "PADI" or "Professional Association of Diving Instructors" has come into effect in nearly 2 countries. Diving enthusiasts from all over the world go to this island every year, and Kao Ben takes photos. It seems that no one can stop the temptation to dance with fish.

"I want to be a fish, swimming in the sea,

chasing the waves during the day and counting the stars at night ..."

This nursery rhyme has been sung for thousands of years, and I don't know who wrote it, so there are fairy tales and dreams. However, you have been to the Maldives in the middle of the Indian Ocean, and you will not hesitate to say: It was created by the Maldives!

activities

Maldives is an archipelago country, and all kinds of recreational activities are mainly water sports.

Activities include visiting the island by canoe or clipper; Go fishing in canoes late at night or early in the morning and experience a completely different experience; And others such as swimming, surfing, boating, diving, etc.

Cruise the island, set off on the Doni boat, and visit the local villages. The island is full of gray and white stone houses, shuttling through the quiet houses and lanes, greeting the leisurely islanders. Then take the Doni boat to snorkel in the uninhabited island where coconut trees are everywhere, and get in touch with fish at zero distance.

The most attractive resource of the air atoll Maldives is an island formed by coral reefs. If you want to see the beautiful scenery of Maldives, you must not miss a bird's eye view of it from the air. Go by seaplane or helicopter and enjoy it all the way. It's beautiful.

Sea fishing The Maldives is rich in large groupers, and people with or without fishing experience can easily catch big fish, so sea fishing is quite popular here. The barbecue fish dinner in the evening, plus wine, candlelight, starry sky on the beach and beautiful scenery, makes people forget themselves.

SPA spa hiding in the paradise of Maldives SPA is like being isolated from the world, enjoying the caress of water drops, petals, green leaves and soil in an elegant space with beautiful sounds and fragrant waves, and sucking the fresh breath from the plants collected in the forest Yuan Ye. Everything is so warm and quiet, as free as birds flying in the sky and fish swimming in the water.
