Part 3: Ultimate itineraries for Africa & the Indian Ocean in 2024
By Valeria Garibotti on 5th January, 2024
Africa and the Indian Ocean are evocative.
This is a part of the world that’s difficult to define: it simply has to be felt.
Think of wild, beautiful savannahs, countless species of birds, mammals and insects: Mother Nature at her most impressive. Home of the great migration, the Big 5 and hospitable, welcoming communities.
It’s also a place to find pristine blue waters and white sands in Mauritius or the Maldives, where the pace of island life is slower but no less exquisite: here, you’ll snorkel and dive on the brightest of coral reefs, surrounded by wildlife.
This is a place where humans are bonded with nature and it’s easier to remember our role on this planet. You should travel here at least once in your life.
These days, the Maldives offers something for everyone including young families, teens, surf fans and dive masters seeking adventure.
But honeymoons remain top of the agenda and we adore adult-only Hurawahli for this.
Expect exquisitely designed and luxurious water villas, romantic dining options – including an underwater restaurant – and a stunning house reef to snorkel, all situated on a paradise island where it’s sunny year round.
Carly’s 7 night stays in the Maldives start from £3,000 per person with international flights starting from £750 per head.
