The islands of Maldives persuade tourists with promises of 'the last paradise on earth', and if your idea of paradise is white sand beaches with turquoise waters glistening, tropical gardens exploding in beautiful color and picture perfect sunsets igniting the sky, then the Maldives will never let you down. It's also a major destination for scuba divers, who come for the magnificent coral reefs and the wealth of marine life.

Ptolemy, the Greek geographer describes the Maldives as a multitude of islands. Ancient Chinese navigators, referring to the maze of lagoons and reefs that require great care in navigation, knew it as the Three Thousand Weak Waters. Marco Polo, the Venetian traveler, found the islands to be "the flower of the Indies". For Ibn Batuta, who traveled extensively during the 14th century and actually lived on the islands, the Maldives was "one of the wonders of the world".

It is believed that these unique coral atolls were formed about 65 to 200 million years ago from the crust of a deceased volcanic mountain range. The atolls (the word atoll was adapted to English from its Maldivian origin "atholhu") are formed from coral barrier reefs. The part of the reefs which protrude from the sea form into islands, as destroyed coral parts gather thus giving them the attribute of white sandy beaches. Having being protected by the reefs, the lagoons are calm and crystal-clear with abundant species of fish and coral.

马尔代夫MALDIVES,字源于印度文MALODHEEP,是花环之意,岛群散布海面好似成串的花环。

随着飞机愈接近岛群,度假的心情逐渐散开,由空中俯瞰印度洋海面,眼光闪亮,是星罗棋布的小岛群,没错,这就是期待中的马尔代夫。热带特有的海风沁在空气里, 嗅得出的悠闲与自在。

真正用心寻访马尔代夫的观光客,一定不会错过从空中鸟瞰她,因为那是欣赏天际抖落而下一块块翠玉的惊奇。您见过一种风景吗?小岛的中央是青翠的绿,四周是闪亮-
的白,近岛的海是浅浅的透明蓝,稍远是较深的湛蓝,更远的海更蓝。在马尔代夫海水有渐层的色彩,这种旖旎美景,令人有点........不知所措。

玩在马尔代夫常让人莞薾一笑,海面上一座座光环似的礁湖小岛,有的站在这头即看到尽头有的30分钟便可游完,别惊讶,一岛一旅馆正是马尔代夫特有的度假岛呢。

度假的心情要率性,是随意,在透心凉的海水中,让梦想抛向蓝天,无限延伸……………。
