Artificial Beach Tourism

Type of destination: Man-made Beach
Ideal visit duration: 1-2 hours
Artificial Beach is a man-made beach located in the capital city of Male in the Maldives. Unlike the natural coral beaches of the Maldivian islands, this beach was created to provide a recreational space for the residents of Male and tourists alike, as the capital itself does not have natural beaches. It was constructed through land reclamation and is one of the few beaches in the world that is artificially made. Spanning a modest area, the beach offers a stretch of white sand and a contained lagoon with calm waters, making it ideal for swimming and water sports. The proximity of the beach to the city makes it a popular spot, especially among locals who seek relaxation and a place to enjoy various leisure activities. In the evenings, the beachfront becomes lively with locals and tourists mingling, enjoying impromptu football matches, and indulging in local cuisine from nearby vendors and cafes. Despite its artificial nature, the beach provides a refreshing contrast to the congested cityscape of Male and offers a slice of tropical paradise with its palm trees and clear blue skies.
