Malé is the capital of the Republic of Maldives and has many attractions that offer a clear glimpse of the vibrant Maldivian heritage and culture. However, do visit the other islands on your trip to the Maldives. Along with the scenic views, the country has many lively markets, fascinating museums, ancient mosques, and popular cafés.

The tourism sector is the largest contributor to the Maldivian economy with a share of more than a quarter of the national income.

Opportunities for investment
The government has targeted to add 35,000 new beds to the sector by 2023, and the focus of this expansion is on diversification and localization.

New tourism products
Investments ranging from high-value developments based on the one-island-one-resort concept, yacht marinas, luxury accommodation and hotels and relatively smaller investments in the guesthouse sector are now open for foreign investors.

Investments that would expand culture and wellness tourism, ecotourism, MICE and adventure tourism are welcome. Investment in tourism real-estate including the development of integrated tourism development projects, holiday homes and private islands, is also an option with great potential, for foreign investors seeking opportunities to invest in the Maldives.
