The Maldives are a collection of atolls and islands whose beauty makes every sailor's heart beat faster. Especially impressive are the underwater worlds, which score with an incredible variety of species and colorful coral gardens. For divers and snorkelers, places like Baa Atoll (UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve) or Ari Atoll are true paradises (inform yourself in advance about the regulations for diving in the respective destinations). There is also much to discover on land. Historical sites like the old Friday Mosque in Malé, lush tropical vegetation and lively local markets are just some of the highlights. Culinarily, you can look forward to fish dishes such as garudhiya, a traditional fish broth, and hedhikaa, a tuna snack.

Getting there: The best way to reach the sailing area of the Maldives from Germany is to fly to Malé. Many international airlines offer direct flights or flights with a stopover. From the airport in Malé it is only a few kilometers to the marina of Hulhumale. There are regular ferry services that cover the short distance of about 7 kilometers in just 20 minutes, or you can use a cab for the short transfer.

From Hulhumale to Kudahuvadhoo: A sailing adventure through the atolls of the Maldives

A Maldives yacht charter offers a true paradise for sailors and attracts water sports enthusiasts of all experience levels. In the calm waters, beginners can gain valuable first experiences, while advanced sailors enjoy the freedom of the longer routes. The ideal starting point for such an adventure is Hulhumale with its impressive modern buildings. There you can not only admire the architecture, but also indulge in traditional Maldivian cuisine in one of the numerous restaurants. Continue on to Addu Atoll, where impressive lagoons and free-roaming dolphins await visitors. Rasdhoo At oll is a world famous dive spot where hammerhead sharks can be seen in their natural environment. In Vaavu At oll, immerse yourself in traditional Maldivian life and visit fishing villages, while Baa Atoll, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, is not only home to many manta rays but also delights nature lovers. If you are looking for peace and seclusion, Felidhoo Atoll is your insider tip. Surfers should not miss Thulusdhoo, known for its challenging waves. Dhigurah, on the other hand, fascinates with impressive whale shark sightings, and in Kudahuvadhoo you can admire the historic stone pillars, the "Hawittas".

Despite the calm waters, which are especially attractive for beginners, it should be noted that some atolls and channels can have strong currents. This requires special attention and, if necessary, experience. However, regardless of your sailing experience, the Maldives offer unforgettable moments. Each island, lagoon and atoll tells a unique story waiting to be discovered by you.
