When is the best time of year to visit the maldives? 🌞 We get sooo many messages about when is best to join our trips and honestly it doesn’t matter too much!! Yes the official dry season is November-April but that doesn’t mean it will be dry the whole season since it’s a tropical climate! 🌞 We don’t run tours May-September as this is the official wet season and we wouldn’t wanna risk it 🌧️ We currently have a few spaces remaining for our April tours and we will be announcing our new 2026 dates very soon!! 🦋 Which month do you want to join us? #maldives #maldivestrip #maldivesislands #maldivesweather #maldivesvacation

No! The Maldives during low season is not really that bad...unless you are very unlucky. Having spent more than 250 nights in the Maldives between May to October (considered as low season) we can count on our 2 hand fingers the number of days that actually looked like this. Low season does not necessarily mean bad weather in the Maldives. It means that the weather is unstable and can change super fast, when compared to high season which is way more stable and predictable. In this video shot at the end of August, it was actually big blue sky 1h later. And, overall, out of 250+ nights in low season, we had close to 85/90% of nice sunny days. So, is it worth going to the Maldives during low season? Absolutely! You'll get much lower rates and way less busy resorts. Yes, there is a risk of rain. Yes, you may not have the perfect February weather. But chances are, you will end up with mostly sunny days and a price 50% lower than Peak season.

Almost everyday, people ask us what's the worst month to travel to the Maldives, and the answer might surprise you! 🤔 There is no month that you should absolutely avoid in the Maldives...or not anymore! For years, the Maldives optimal travel period was split very clearly into two seasons, high season from November to April and low season from May to October. The idea was simple, dry weather equals high prices, wetter weather equals better deals. But over the last few years, this logic has slowly stopped making sense. Some so called “rainy” months have delivered weeks of sunshine, while classic high season months like January or February have seen more unstable conditions than usual. What really hasn’t changed is pricing. Travelling in high season still comes with a very big premium, even though the weather advantage is no longer guaranteed. Low season, on the other hand, offers much better value, with the exact same resorts, the same beaches and often very similar weather. The reality is this, if you can accept the possibility of a short tropical shower, there is no month you truly need to avoid. The Maldives remains a very sunny destination all year long, and long stretches of bad weather are still rare. They can happen, but chances are low. The worst mistake is not choosing the “wrong” month, it is overpaying for the illusion of guaranteed sunshine. This video was filmed during a period that was supposed to be high season on paper (end of November 2025), yet the conditions were far from what people expect when they hear “high season”. Conclusion: do give low season a chance!

𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐡 𝐢𝐭? 🤔 It truly IS paradise…the photos and videos you see don’t lie! But there’s definitely a lot to consider before planning a trip there The rainy vs dry season is SO important. You don’t want to travel all that way and end up with a week of heavy rain! In general, the rainy season is mid-May through October, but it can shift by a week or two. Our first trip to the Maldives was the first week of May, and we had one day that was nothing but rain, but otherwise, the weather was beautiful There are hundreds of resorts to choose from, so be prepared to spend A LOT of time researching prices and amenities. Some offer all-inclusive, full board, and/or half board packages. If you’re booking with points, Marriott has the most options, followed by Hilton and IHG, and Hyatt has two resorts What you’re not going to avoid are the high fees for the transfers. If the resort is close to MLE, it’s not too bad to take a boat. But the farther away you get from the capital city, the more expensive it gets for the seaplane. Some resorts also have an option to take a domestic flight to a local island and then boat transfer to the resort The country has strict laws around alcohol and what can be worn, BUT those laws don’t apply to the resort islands. However, if you’re visiting a local island, that is something to keep in mind If you’re using points to fly there, you’ll want to plan WAY in advance or be creative with your routing. There’s a ton of demand - especially for premium cabins - with limited options, so the awards get booked up quickly. We highly recommend breaking up the journey! For example, we did: Louisville to DFW to Rome (4 days) Rome to Abu Dhabi to Maldives (6 days) Maldives to Singapore (2 days) Singapore to Tokyo to Chicago to Louisville Breaking it up like this gives you a better chance at finding the award availability, and since you’re already flying to the other side of the world, you might as well visit some other places along the way! There’s also high departure taxes from MLE. Expect to pay $100+ if flying economy and $250+ for premium cabins Questions? Ask below! ⬇️ #traveltips101 #maldivestravel #bucketlistdestinations

Maldives is unreal 😍 #maldives #dreamdestination #tropicalparadise #bestviews #maldivesislands #maldivesresorts #islandlife #beachlife #sealife #oceanlife #sea #beautifuldestinations #travel #summer #holiday

If only there was an easy answer to this question...! 😅The weather in the Maldives is usually cut into 2 main seasons: the high season from November to April and the low season from May to October. Or at least, this used to be the case! Over the last 4/5 years, the weather has become extremely unpredictable in the Maldives, often offering some amazing summers (particularly August which has been amazing 4 years in a row) while some months of the high season, like January or February, are seeing increased chances of rain. Yet, one thing remains unchanged: the prices. You still pay a massive premium to travel to the Maldives in high season while the low season is significantly cheaper. Our recommendation remains the same: do give low season a chance! Yes, you may be unlucky and get some rain but this could also happen in February when you pay double the price... So better to have rain at half the price ;) Overall, the Maldives remains a VERY sunny destination all year long and getting several days of bad weather, while totally possible, remains very rare. This video was shot on 30th of November 2025 at Joali Being where the weather was a bit moody for several days. Very unusual for that time of the year...
