Maldives is a tropical paradise smacked right in the middle of the Indian Ocean. It definitely is an ideal place for the shooting of such exotic TV shows as Lost. Because its main product is tourism, the country has a free visa policy. That means any nationality can get into the country for free within 30 days. That’s the expiry of the visa. And all you need as requirement of proof of funds for the visa is your reservation for the resort that you’ll be staying.

Even if Maldives is a relatively small country, its resorts are world-class. You’ll find dozens if not hundreds of five-star resorts in the country. There are various kinds of amenities available at par with the resorts in Ibiza, Palma del Mallorca, the Caribbean or Phuket.

Take note that Maldives is more of a family-oriented outing such as a honeymoon and not the business tourism kind. Yet this can also be an ideal place to explore for backpacking friends and if you’ve got an online chum in this country, you may surely save on expenses if you stay with the locals. In that way, you can immerse more on the customs of the community here.
