Do’s and Don’ts Cover yoursel properly when visiting inhabited islands and Male’. For men shorts and a shirt are acceptable. Women are expected to cover their bodies and thighs. While swimming trunks, bikinis and other beachwear is the norm on the resort, they are not acceptable on inhabited islands. Remember that nudism in public places is prohibited. Traditionally Maldivians eat with their ngers. I you wish to ollow the local tradition keep in mind that it is considered unhygienic to touch ood with the let hand. I in doubt use a spoon. Be conscious o the delicate local environment. Do not touch or pick corals when diving or snorkeling. The Maldivians use the Islamic greeting “Assalaam “Assalaam Alaikum” to greet riends and strangers alike. “Shukuriyya” means thank you.
