Where to stay, when to go, what to see, and how to make the most of your GHA DISCOVERY membership benefits, rewards and offers in the Maldives, the Indian Ocean’s legendary archipelago.
Nestled in the heart of the Indian Ocean, the islands of Maldives shine like a strand of pearls adrift on the waves. With a name meaning “garland” or “necklace islands,” these 1,192 coral islands, grouped in a chain of 26 atolls, comprise Asia’s smallest country. Here, you’ll find some of the planet’s most stunning beaches, bordered by lush jungle that teems with flora, fauna and incredible experiences. Welcome to paradise on earth.
Ready for the quintessential tropical getaway? Across the Maldives you’ll find GHA DISCOVERY’s most breathtaking hotels and resorts. And it’s not just about the sapphire waves or endless white sand. Want to explore teeming marine life? Try coastal scuba diving, or sip cocktails in an underwater restaurant. If air is your element, enjoy a day of skydiving or parasailing. For land-lovers, try a day picnic excursion to view animals and plants, take a traditional art workshop … or help preserve the coral reefs.
The best time to visit the Maldives is November to April, where the warm tropical climate averages highs of 29°C to 31°C.
