The white sands and turquoise seas of the Indian Ocean make for the perfect romantic getaway. These islands cater especially well to package holidays and luxury resorts where everything you need is just a few steps away.
The Indian Ocean is home to a wide range of wildlife that can be seen from boat cruises, while scuba diving, or sometimes just by swimming off the beach with a mask and snorkel. See blue whales, turtles, manta rays, whale sharks, coral reefs, and thousands of different types of fish.
The Maldives is a chain of picturesque island resorts with some of the best diving spots in the world. Seychelles and Mauritius flaunt the remnants of French colonial culture while presenting their own local charm and natural beauty. Zanzibar is a culinary treat just off the east coast of Africa where sailing dhows pass by the stunning beaches. Sri Lanka, off the southern tip of India presents a different sort of holiday destination, with jungle safaris, diverse wildlife and ancient temples abound.
