While the Maldives provides plenty of opportunities to have fun in the sand and the surf, it also offers some fun shopping too. The best place for shopping is the capital Male and those in search of Maldives island resorts that offer excursions here can consider Adaaran Hudhuranfushi. It features elegant Maldives villas and lets you also enjoy the very best the country has to offer.
Make sure to plan a trip to Male where you can indulge in some shopping, buying everything from local handicrafts to clothing, jewellery to electronics and canned fish to cosmetics. The main shopping locale is Majeedhee Magu where one can also purchase handbags and other fashion accessories. Chaandanee Magu is another popular area amongst shoppers and is where one will find plenty of mementos and souvenirs such as miniature dhonis (a traditional fishing vessel). For a more unique shopping experience head to the Local Market where one can find stalls selling a variety of fruits and vegetables and to the Fish Market where visitors can see the days catch being brought in.
