All you need to now about this island nation of 1,190 coral islands
The Maldives is a geological marvel stretching across the Indian Ocean like a magnificent strand of rare pearls at the Equator. This island nation comprises 1,190 small coral islands – isn’t that amazing? The Maldives is the lowest country on earth, with an average height above sea level of just one to three meters.
Nowadays, sailors are welcomed by Maldivians and find shelter from the Indian Ocean among its countless protected, deep-water anchorages.
Culture
Cultural diversity can be seen in everything from music to boat building. Music is frequently played with a local bodu-beru, or big drum, similar to African drumming. And the Maldivian dhoni, a sailboat built locally by skilled craftsmen, is strikingly similar to a dhow, the traditional Arabian sailing vessel.
