Yacht Charters
You have yet to experience the sweetest solitude until you’ve chartered a yacht in the Maldives. Known for its world-class diving, luxury resort isles, and breathtaking beaches at secluded anchorages, this archipelago of 1100+ islands across 26 atolls inspires awe in all who have had the pleasure of witnessing it.
The Maldives yacht charters take you to a cerulean blue masterpiece of ocean and desert isles, surrounded by a network of reefs that give rise to its signature calm waters and lagoons swimming with sea life.
Its luxurious resort bungalows on stilts and a sparse local population make finding your own secluded island a tantalizing option.
As the flattest country on Earth, the Maldives average a mere 2.5 meters above sea level, giving way to its signature “underwater” bars, restaurants and hotels.
Most of the locals live across just 200 of the islands, leaving much to be discovered between the coconut palms.

Chartering in the Maldives: When to Go?
One of the best times to book a yacht charter in the Maldives is from December to May when the climate is dry and the southwest monsoon season has passed. Yet, it’s safe to say the Maldives has moderate weather with a nice island breeze all year round due to its proximity to the equator.

World-class spas
Luxury spas are scattered throughout the resort islands.
Luxury spas are scattered throughout the resort islands, which is one of the greatest advantages of chartering the Maldives. Emboodhu Finolhu hosts the grand Taj Exotica Resort & Spa in one of the largest lagoons (an enchanting sight) while the Taj Coral Reef Resort & Spa on the island of Hembadhu is another such resort island with dramatic sunset views.
Within the lagoon of Huvafen, Huvafen Fushi is the most unique spa with a different kind of view. This underwater spa is located eight meters below the surface—and is the only of its kind in the world. The underwater spa offers a relaxing view of fishes and coral reefs to accompany the day’s treatment.
Amazing local cuisine
The Maldivian cuisine is rich in fresh.
The Maldivian cuisine is rich in fresh, local ingredients, with curries ranging from spicy to sweet. It’s rich in local staples like fresh barracudas, trevallies, tropical fruit desserts, and New and Old World wines. Halaveli Island is one such place that offers a chance to experience wines from Africa, New Zealand, and France through a “lagoon wine tasting.”
A unique way to experience the local cuisine is for a private yacht chef to prepare the fish reeled in from a day’s fishing expedition. Having a yacht charter in the Maldives gives you the freedom to catch and savor something fresh from the waters.
Reefs and Lagoons
