When you read the weather information gathered down below, you'll notice that the weather within the Maldives tends to be nearly identical throughout, with the month not really meaning much. The days in this region tend to be on the warm side and at least, what most would consider, somewhat humid. The nights here are known for being both reasonably warm and a bit on the balmy side.
Unlike most of other tropical destinations, the Maldives is unique in that it has two different “monsoon seasons” each year. Thankfully, neither season is known for any dramatic weather or flooding, so the differences are subtle. Even during what we would consider the non-monsoon seasons, you'll still note some infrequent rainfall, so the overall consistency is what is most striking for the potential visitor. With this said, the best times to visit the Maldives really depends on your goals, as the entire year is a good time if you can make it out there.
Many say Maldives is only for honeymooners, do you think it can be a good place for birthday celebrations?any exciting activities or suggestions?. thank you.
Marolyne,
It’s true that the Maldives is very popular with honeymoon couples, but I think most of the guests are people who come back every year or every few years. It’s a very addicting place. You definitely wouldn’t be the only ones celebrating a birthday.
The larger resorts tend to have more options for activities, although honestly most people (especially those who have been before) seem to be happy to relax during the day and party a bit at night. There are boat excursions daily at most resorts, and those can be fun. And there is pretty decent snorkeling below the water villas at most places, although that comes and goes with the tides. -Roger
