Despite having problematic laws concerning LGBTQ+ rights, the Maldives is one of Out Of Office’s most popular destinations. Due to the geography of the Maldives, each island is essentially run by the resort that occupies it. We work with an incredible selection of resorts, many of which have LGBTQ+ management, that are welcoming to the LGBTQ+ community.

Activities

One of the best things about the Maldives is the lack of things to do! You don’t have to visit every art gallery, because there aren’t any. You can just enjoy the relaxing atmosphere and luxury amenities of your resort. The Maldives does offer some activities, however – chiefly watersports.

At Niyama, you can swim with hammerhead sharks, jet ski, wakeboard and take a catamaran cruise. Surfers will do well here. Ride the waves of the Indian Ocean – this is nature’s playground so the waves are quite impressive. Supposing you’d like to learn about the fascinating flora and fauna under the sea, you can join a marine biologist and go for a private snorkelling session.
