Two Ideal Destinations for Winter Warmth

Maldives a good choice for an after Christmas getaway

With Britain noting winter weather descending, many will be keen to get away after Christmas. Flights to the Maldives' Male and Mauritius offer the ideal opportunity to indulge in a little paradise after the busy festive period. With beautiful beaches, transparent waters and a sunny climate, both locations are the perfect winter retreat.

Made up of more than 1,000 islands, the Maldives is located in the Indian Ocean. Each island has no more than one resort, so secluded relaxation is assured and visitors will be able to enjoy the long stretches of sand to themselves. Snorkelling is a great pastime here, allowing travellers to explore the colourful, underwater realm, and for those who want to be daring, scuba diving can be enjoyed. With so many islands, having a multi-stop tour is ideal, and British individuals will find exploring the Maldives a luxurious experience.

An alternative Indian Ocean paradise is Mauritius. Here too, beautiful beaches are a huge attraction for holidaymakers, offering the chance to unwind in the blissful sun. One of the most famed bathing spots is Pereybere, which is a small, secluded cove ideal for swimming. Belle Mare, meanwhile, is a popular beach destination.

With a wide range of flights to Mauritius and the Maldives available, travellers will find the destinations easily accessible. For the perfect winter warmth, these two spots are the ideal post-Christmas getaway.
