If you feel you have had enough of the marine extravaganza of the Maldives, then you should head over to the capital if excitement and activity is what you want. The many places you could visit include the fish market – that is always bustling with activity, or the numerous souvenir shops, or just take a leisurely stroll through the very small but incredibly busy capital – Malé. Do not forget to stop at one of the many coffee shops or restaurants to try at least one of the local dishes or snacks.

While you are in Malé, a visit to the National Museum is a must if you would like to see how much the Maldives has transformed over the years. The artifacts, monuments and pictures in the museum will tell you mesmerizing stories.

The lazy lapping of waves, sounds of the many coconut palms swaying in the soft breeze and chirping of birds will make you one with nature as nothing else in this world ever would.
