Maldives 'Has World-Class Diving and Snorkelling Facilities'


Diving fans have been advised to head to the Indian Ocean.

According to Kerri Jackson, who writes for The New Zealand Herald,
the Maldives is a nation which is renowned for its diving and snorkelling facilities.

She adds that the nation, which is a collection of small atolls located off the coast of India, is also famous for its "spectacular beauty".

"The
Maldives has long held a comfortable position on any list of the world's top holiday spots: most beautiful... most romantic... you name it. And it's hard to argue," commented Ms Jackson.

Holidaymakers taking trips to the Maldives are advised by the New Zealand publication to remember that it is a Muslim country and therefore alcohol is not permitted outside resorts.

The Lonely Planet Travel guide describes the Maldives as delivering the "promise of Eden" to holidaymakers and notes that its white sandy beaches, tropical trees and turquoise lagoons all ensure that the nation does not fail to deliver on this.
