December is one of the best months to visit the Maldives but remember to book early for Christmas and New Year as resorts are often fully booked months in advance.

December sees high season in the Maldives and most islands in the Maldives will be under clear skies with little or no rain for most of the month.

Temperatures can be expected to be in the high twenties or early thirties with long hours of sunshine and the sea and sand resplendent under December skies.
