The Maldives has to be one of the most peaceful places on earth. Scattered across the Indian Ocean are over 1,000 coral islands grouped together in ‘Atolls’ and only around 100 of these islands are for tourists and usually only one hotel will be found on each. Unspoilt White sandy beaches, swaying palms, and crystal clear seas engulf each island so slip off your sandals, lie back in your hammock and relax in paradise.
