Maldives

Off the Beaten Path · Season 8 · Episode 8
The Maldives is an island nation in the Indian Ocean, located about 740 kilometres southwest of Sri Lanka. While its white sand beaches and turquoise waters are world famous, some of its most stunning beauty lies beneath the surface.

This incredible environment drew Petra from Slovakia here five years ago. Together with her partner Ivan, they built a small eco friendly resort. Both are passionate divers, and Petra also works as a professional yoga instructor, finding perfect balance in this island setting.

We taste local street food, breadfruit chips, and homemade ice cream, then cook tuna curry right on the beach. Beyond the scenery, it’s the warmth and friendliness of the local people that truly make the Maldives unforgettable.
