A yacht is the best way to see the Maldives: you move between atolls, anchor off empty sandbanks and dive reefs before the resort boats arrive. Water visibility is at its best from January to April.
A week aboard
Day 1: board in Malé. Day 2 to 3: North Malé reefs and sandbank lunches. Day 4 to 5: Baa Atoll and the manta rays of Hanifaru. Day 6: Rasdhoo for hammerheads at dawn. Day 7: South Ari and back to Malé.
