There’s nothing quite like forgetting all your worries by escaping to a deserted island paradise – and that’s exactly what you can do in the Maldives! To top it all off, you don’t even have to break the bank to do it.
Maldives is primarily made up of water. In fact, over 99% of its territory is comprised of water, with its total land mass attributing to less than a shocking 1%.
Of this 1% which encompasses all the islands belonging to the Maldivian archipelago, a surprisingly large number of land masses are actually either completely or mostly uninhabited islands.
These deserted islands make for great intimate escapes and day excursions either from the many private resort islands which are geared to tourists, or from the capital city of Male.
If you are interested in heading out to a deserted island in search of the thrill that comes from knowing that you have a while island entirely to yourself, or close enough, at least, check out online publications that focus on holidaying in the country such as The Maldives Travels and similar others.
They may be able to provide you with the information you need to plan your ultimate visit to Maldives.
Once you identify a suitable deserted island you want to pay a visit to, you can get there via speedboats owned by private operators.
Make sure to pack all the necessities that you’ll need during your time there! Don’t forget the mosquito repellent, and make sure you do forget the alcohol, lest you want to get thrown into prison; remember the Maldives is a Muslim country with a zero tolerance policy towards alcohol consumption, except on private resort islands.
Do remember to take a lot of drinking water with you however, to ensure you don’t get dehydrated during your little adventure. Don’t worry, if you think you’re running out of drinking water, just whip out your handy Swiss Army knife and see if you can score yourself some king coconuts!

They are usually filled tasty king coconut water which tastes good and is excellent for hydration. Although, you may also need to have exceptional tree climbing skills to reach them.
Coconut palms, with their towering, narrow trunks are devoid of branches and a notoriously hard to scale. So maybe remember to pack enough water and then some!
