They Make the Most of the Beach in the Maldives

When you think of the Maldives, you might think of crystal clear waters, golden sand bars, and water bungalows. But this country is so much more than its association with luxury tourism. This country is also home to devout Muslims who take Ramadan very seriously, and it's just a perk that they get to experience this holy month in one of the most beautiful places in the world. In fact, one of the Ramadan traditions in the Maldives is to head to the beach at night to try and spot the crescent moon in the sky.

Due to its location in the middle of the ocean, Muslims in the Maldives also have a lot of fish and seafood in their Iftar meals. This food is easy for them to source and also something that everyone seems to love.
