Maldives
The Maldives is made up of about 1,200 small islands, situated on the equator in the Indian Ocean about 375 miles south west of Sri Lanka. Perhaps the ultimate tropical paradise, the majority of the islands are uninhabited and others have been designated as holiday islands.
Mauritius
Mauritius is an Indian Ocean paradise known for its pristine white sand beaches and crystal-clear turquoise waters. Located off the south-eastern coast of Africa, the island has become a fascinating melting pot of different cultures, with European, African, Indian and Chinese influences all present.
Seychelles
The Seychelles is an archipelago consisting of 115 idyllic islands 932 miles off the coast of East Africa and surrounded by the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean. The islands’ picture-perfect white sand beaches, fringed with swaying palms and granite boulders are what attract many visitors to the Seychelles.
Mauritius, Maldives or the Seychelles?
The Indian Ocean is home to the picture-perfect tropical destinations of the Maldives, Mauritius and the Seychelles. All three boast turquoise waters and palm-fringed white sand beaches, but each one also offers a very different holiday experience. The Maldives is the ideal choice for those looking to get away from it all and enjoy some of the best snorkelling in the world. Mauritius allows visitors to relax on the beach, but also explore national parks and soak up plenty of local culture. The Seychelles meanwhile is perfect for an island hopping adventure, and nature lovers will be amazed by the diverse flora and fauna.
