Monsoon

It’s monsoon all around the year in the Maldives but in varying degrees. The main tourist season is from December to March when the sun comes out often. Tourist activity peaks around the Christmas-New Year week. It’s wise to book in advance for this time. The rest of the year is prone to heavier rainfall but there are many bright and glorious days as well. For serious divers the months of April and November (when the weather’s changing) are supposed to offer exceptionally clear waters and the best viewing.
