Maldives::Update bringing you the latest tourism news from ...the sunny side of life: ": Maldives launches new initiations to attract more Australian visitors
22 June 2006

Sydney, 19 June 2006; Maldives launches promotions aimed for over 100 Australian travel agents, wholesalers, and media companies interested in further developing ties with the unique island-tourism destination.

“Australians love to travel for adventure, action, romance and pampering, and the Maldives offers all those attractions in abundance,” the tourism promotion board’s Ismail Shahyr said, “Unfortunately too few Australians know about us, and our task is to ask the Australian travel industry to join us in raising our country’s profile and generating more demand from Australians looking for a great surf, dive, cultural and spa resort experience”.

Made up of more than 1200 tiny islands and atolls dangling like a vivid coral necklace in the Indian Ocean south-west of Sri Lanka, the Maldives is going through a mini development boom in the archipelago with 35 new islands being set aside for tourism recently."
