Hulhumale Beach

Beach lovers visiting Maldives never miss a chance to relish a day trip to the very beautiful Hulhumale Beach. Its spectacular beauty is such that it is hard to believe that this is an artificial beach. It has been perfectly crafted by humans and not caused by volcanoes. The beach has a shimmering white sand and shallow waters. This is a great place to savour the calmness of nature all around without being disturbed by the crowds.

Wearing bikinis is not allowed on the Hulhumale beach. For that, you need to walk along the beach until you reach the so-called tourist beach or bikini beach where bikinis are allowed.

Hulhumale Beach attracts numerous water sports lovers. It is a perfect spot to indulge in Snorkelling. The beach is fenced by a reef lying around 70 meters from shore. Here you can spot incredible marine life, including baby sharks, turtles, rays, and many varieties of fish. Scuba diving is another activity which can be practiced here. Many professional Scuba diving camps have been set up here offering diving packages. Apart from this, one can also try out wake boarding, parasailing and kite surfing here.

Hulhumale Beach remains extremely popular among family vacationers as well as locals looking for a place to spend a day amidst sun, sea and sand. Here you can try out some cool things apart from just wandering through the colourful and narrow streets around it. There are local markets around the beach selling all kinds of colourful stuff.
