Maldives.

 The Maldives, officially known as the Republic of Maldives, is a tropical paradise located in the Indian Ocean, situated in the Arabian Sea. It lies southwest of Sri Lanka and India, roughly 700 kilometers from the Asian continent's mainland. 

Historically, the Maldives has had a rich and varied past. It was settled by Dravidian people from the nearest coasts of the modern Indian Subcontinent and Sri Lanka around the 2000 BC. Later, around the 5th century BC, the archipelago came under the influence of various colonial powers, including the Portuguese, Dutch, and British, but remained a free and sovereign nation for the majority of its history. The Maldives gained independence from British rule on July 26, 1965, and has since grown to become a republic with a strong economic focus on tourism.

Tourism is the backbone of the Maldives' economy, thanks to its stunning natural beauty. It is widely recognized for its amazing coral reefs, featuring over 2000 species of fish, 5 species of sea turtles, 21 species of whales and dolphins, 400 species of molluscs, and 250 species of coral. The country's 26 atolls encompass over 1,000 coral islands, many of which are home to luxury resorts.

The climate of the Maldives is tropical, meaning it's hot and humid year-round, but tempered by sea breezes. There are two monsoons, the southwest from May to October and the northeast from November to April. The average daily temperature varies from 31 °C during the day to 23 °C at night.

The Maldives provides a unique blend of tranquility and adventure with its clear waters, white sandy beaches, and diverse marine life. It's a haven for snorkeling, diving, surfing and fishing enthusiasts, and a perfect destination for those seeking relaxation and luxury.
