Restrictions regarding clothing in Maldives



Since Maldives is a typically Muslim country so there are various restrictions imposed on clothing. Following are the variety of restrictions:
  • Women should keep their thighs and shoulders covered. Even if they are wearing shorts and three quarters, yet the dress should definitely cover their thighs and shoulders.
  • Bikinis are absolutely prohibited.
  • Nude bathing is strictly prohibited.
  • Women should not wear transparent clothing.
These restrictions regarding Maldives culture are strictly followed in Maldives. Even when you are on the beach, swimming or enjoying water sports, you are not allowed to wear bikinis.
You can wear swimming trunks and swimwear while you are out on the sea. However, you are never allowed to wear them inside the resorts or restaurants to avoid offending other fellow holidaymakers.
