Gay friendly maldives

Do you want to go to one of the gay-friendly islands but struggling to decide between Maldives, Mozambique, Mauritius, Madagascar or Seychelles?

We've been to every one of these islands and know them inside-out! So, we're letting you in on what you requirement to know to help you resolve which one to visit. Although to be fair, we won't blame you for wanting to add all of them to your itinerary (and it's definitely possible!) by the time you finish reading this blog.

1. The Maldives

The Maldives is the most intimate island experience out there. When staying at one of the gay-friendly floating resorts, you're surrounded by nothing but the ocean and never-ending views.

Jump linear into the moisture from your bed, dive and snorkel to explore the underwater wonders, or embark on a sightseeing boat cruise. If you're itching for a secluded romantic getaway, the Maldives will transport and then some.

It's For You If

• You enjoy snorkelling and diving as it has some of the best sites in the world.

• You want to perceive like yo
  
  

  Although homosexuality is illegal according to the Maldives’ local Islamic law, tourists are mostly exempt during their stay in tourist areas. Similarly, alcohol is also illegal, but you will find plenty of alcoholic drinks to quench your thirst in these resorts!
  
  Therefore, it is inherent to be respectful upon your arrival at the airport, during transportation to your resort or when visiting the local areas. However, you can smash back and enjoy each other’s company without any concerns as soon as you reach your resort. The most luxurious part of staying at these overwater bungalows are the level of privacy, making it very alluring for gay couples looking for an escape.

  A string of islands located on uppermost of an underwater mountain range, the Maldives is like a magical planet of its own. Picture postcard-perfect powdery white beaches set against a coconut tree skyline. Sounds fabulous? It is!

  Maldives Gay Guide

  The Maldives depends greatly on tourism and locals are generally friendly towards gay travelers. Homosexual sexual activity is illegal in the country, however, the resorts are not particularly bound by the country's regulations.  Nevertheless, since it is a Muslim territory, a discrete behaviour is highly recommended when in public.
  
  The gay community of the Maldives is hidden, resulting in the lack of a gay scene. In general, the Maldives is not about partying or exploration of culture, your whole experience will take part in the resort, and you will most probably not interact with any locals, except the hotel's personnel.

  The majority of the beaches in the Maldives are private, so among the few public beaches in the state, there are not any exclusively gay. Each hotel has its own private beach where you will relax the sun and the sea, and feel comfortable among other tourists.

  The Best Resorts for Gay Travellers in the Maldives

  Is Maldives an LGBTQ+ Paradise?

  Maldives is a Muslim territory so how suitable is it for the Queer traveller? Yes, the state has anti-gay laws but any guest who has been travelling to the Maldives for years will be able to recall seeing many LGBTQ+ couples. I remember working at Niyama Private Islands in and on one seaplane transfer we had three separate gay couples flying home. I travelled with my partner last November and I was surprised how many other homosexual couples we saw in many of the resorts and at LUX* South I spotted four! When chatting with Maldives resorts about catering to the LGBTQ+ market, I own been met with overwhelming enthusiasm.

  The real challenge now is selecting the top resorts for your Homosexual clients. Maldives is unrecognisable from 10 years ago. In there were only a handful of resorts, aimed mostly at the luxury traveller. The principle of a Hard Rock Resort or nearly all the global mid-market hotel brands having a Maldives footprint with resorts that have hundreds of rooms was unthinkable back then.

  Now, you&#x;ll find a wide-ranging range of resorts, from isla
