Live the island life of a Maldivian for a few days. I have been wanting to make a post about this for a while but I couldn't get the right words until I found this brilliant video that shows perfectly what you can find on a local island.
It shows a person riding through the road near the beach, relaxing near a freshwater lake right next to the beach (that's right, its a freshwater lake at 0:15), relax at home on the traditional Maldivian swing, having lunch at home and then go have a coffee at an open air restaurant, etc. It also shows the traditional Maldivian house made using corals.
You can find these usually on all the local islands except the freshwater lakes, which is found only on a very few islands. The location on the video is Addu Atoll, the group of islands on the southern most tip of Maldives. These islands are connected through bridges for most of the part so you can ride through the islands on wheels. There are resorts nearby and also an airport called Gan International Airport where you can take direct flight from Male'.
