Discovering Maldivian Culture

The Maldives is more than stunning beaches—it’s a vibrant culture shaped by its fishing heritage and Islamic traditions. With Meliora Yachts, you can:

• Visit inhabited islands like Dhiffushi to explore local culture, mosques, and local crafts.

• Enjoy a Bodu Beru performance, the rhythmic drum music of the Maldives, arranged onboard or on a beach.

• Learn traditional fishing techniques with our crew, followed by a meal of your fresh catch.

  
  

Cultural Etiquette

• Dress Code: On local islands, dress modestly (cover shoulders and knees) to respect Islamic customs.

• Alcohol: Alcohol is restricted on inhabited islands but freely available on your yacht.

• Respectful Interactions: Our crew provides guidance to ensure respectful engagement with local communities.
  

Why a Yacht Enhances the Experience

A Meliora Yachts charter offers the flexibility to visit multiple islands, blending cultural excursions with luxury. Anchor near a local village for a day trip, then return to your private oasis for gourmet dining and relaxation.
