Geografiskt läge och isolering

The Maldives, an archipelago of 26 atolls, lies in the heart of the Indian Ocean. Its isolated location means fewer pollutants reach these pristine waters. The absence of large rivers flowing into the ocean limits the influx of sediments and contaminants, maintaining the water’s clarity.

Varmt tropiskt klimat

The Maldives enjoys a warm tropical climate year-round, with temperatures averaging between 25°C and 30°C. This warmth supports a rich and diverse marine ecosystem, contributing to clear waters. Warm waters also enhance the growth of coral reefs, which play a crucial role in maintaining water transparency.

Coral Reefs: Nature’s Filters

Coral reefs are more than just beautiful underwater landscapes; they act as natural water filters. These vibrant ecosystems thrive in clear, shallow waters, where sunlight can penetrate and support their growth. The corals filter out particulate matter from the water, contributing to the exceptional clarity. The Maldives’ reefs are among the most diverse in the world, providing not just visual splendour but also clear waters teeming with life.

Minimal mänsklig påverkan

The Maldivian government and resorts like Nova prioritise sustainable tourism and environmental conservation. Efforts to protect marine life, regulate fishing practices, and limit coastal development help preserve the waters’ natural clarity. Our commitment to preserving the environment ensures that you can enjoy your good soul days in unspoiled surroundings.
