Maldives

1. Find Out Which Month to Go

Our advice: Travel in February.

  • February is the ideal month to visit the Maldives. It’s right in the middle of the dry season (Iruvai), offering warm, sunny weather (around 30°C) and calm, crystal-clear waters — perfect for snorkeling, diving, or lounging in an overwater villa. You’ll enjoy consistent sunshine and fewer rain disruptions, making it the most relaxing time to visit.

    If February doesn’t work, March is a close second. Weather remains dry and clear, with just a slight rise in humidity. Prices start to dip after peak season, offering slightly better deals — especially in the second half of the month.

Average Prices

  • Flights to Malé are cheapest in May, starting from around ₹17,000 roundtrip from India.

  • Resort stays average ₹12,000–₹18,000 per night, though guesthouses on local islands can cost as little as ₹3,500 per night.

Weather Overview

  • Avoid May to October if you’re looking for sun — this is the wet southwest monsoon period.

  • December to April is the dry season, with February offering the best weather mix.

  • The sea remains warm (around 28°C) year-round, great for water activities.

Crowds to Avoid

December and January are the most crowded and expensive months due to holiday travel. February brings equally good weather with fewer crowds and slightly better prices. If you want to avoid peak resort rates, try mid-March.
