Acknowledgements The World Tourism Organization wishes to express its thanks and deep appreciation to all the participants, including the Ministers of tourism, the Emergency Task Force Members, tourism decision makers, researchers, and private sector stakeholders for their valuable support and contribution to the implementation of the Phuket Action Plan. WTO would also like to thank all the departments of the WTO Secretariat for putting tsunami recovery on top of their work agenda. WTO would like to express a special thanks to its departments of Press and Communications, Affiliate Members, Market Intelligence and Promotion, the Cabinet Office, Education and Knowledge Management, Sustainable Tourism Development, Technical Cooperation and Information Technology. Last but not least, WTO is equally grateful to Mr. Germán Porras and Mr. Ralf Corsten for their valuable inputs on tsunami affairs. This report was edited and produced by the Emergency Tsunami Task Force Unit, under the supervision of the Regional Representation for Asia and the Pacific of the World Tourism Organization. Foreword I thank the WTO members for the immediate response to my call for support to assist the tsunami affected countries of Thailand, Indonesia, Sri Lanka and the Maldives at the beginning of the year. As you are no doubt aware, an extraordinary session of the Executive Council was convened, for the first time in the history of the Organization, on the 31st January of 2005 in Phuket and a task force subsequently constituted. The ensuing action plan, appropriately called, the Phuket Action Plan outlined a series of measures for post tsunami tourism recovery of the destinations. WTO earmarked over 40 projects of which a majority has been completed and the present publication is a testimony to the work carried out and those in progress in tourism recovery. It is to the credit to the international community that it rallied in earnest to assist the affected destinations. Tourism is, in these countries, an important element in their national economies, with many dependent on the industry for employment and livelihood. A year has almost past since this tragic event but I am happy to inform you that the recovery both in terms of arrivals as well as product development in all four countries has been very satisfactory, which shows that the tourism sector is extremely resilient to stress and strain. The United Nations has been kept informed regularly of the progress of the work of the tsunami unit of WTO. There has also been close coordination between WTO and the department of the Special Envoy of tsunami recovery of the United Nations. This is not the first, and alas, may not be the last time, that tourism is affected by unforeseen events. Asia has had a fair share of natural and human disasters in the past decade, but each time, tourism has risen from the embers, stronger and richer. The countries themselves have no doubt profited from the measures undertaken through the Phuket Action Plan, in communications, training, community relief, crisis management and sustainable redevelopment, which I hope will all stand in good stead in the future. I wish Thailand, Indonesia, Sri Lanka and the Maldives all the very best in their recovery efforts.

Is a beautiful string of 1,190 low-laying coral islands scattered across the equator in the vast expanse of the Indian Ocean, giving us a rare glimpse of what is aptly described as tropical paradise. Just consider this sparkling white sun- kissed beached, crystal-clear lagoons studded with profusely colored corals; azure warm seas with an undisturbed exotic marine life palm-fringed island the providing serenity all of it summarized by the famous Moroccan traveler Ibn Battuta on describing Maldives as “one of wonders of the world” The sun, the sand and the sea, these are just three simple realities beckoning tourist from far and wide to these little islets, giving as a result, a glorious sense of happiness and proving to be a heavenly getaway from the word and its worries. The Maldives teaches the visitors the pleasurable art of doing nothing, simply lazing around and enjoying some the most spectacular and colorful vistas offered by nature. No wonder than that tourists flock in large numbers to the 80-odd self-contained island resorts provided with all the comforts and warmth exuded by traditional Maldivian hospitality.

Tourism in the Maldives: experiencing the difference from the Maldives Ms. Bénédicte AUVRAY PhD candidate Geography [email protected] University of Le Havre (Cirtai/UMR IDEES) +33 2 32 74 41 35 25, rue Philippe LEBON 76086 LE HAVRE Cedex France Abstract According to the official website of the Maldives Tourism Promotion Board, the country looks like a white and blue world for honeymooners, divers and budding Robinson Crusoe. Indeed it is the international representation of the Maldives. The reason for this touristic development is segregation: vacationers are allowed (and waited) to spend time in luxury resorts whereas Maldivian inhabitants are contained on local islands. In view of this phenomenon of social and spatial separation, the term “visit” is inappropriate. “Experience” would be more suitable: Maldivian island-hotel is a model of enclosure, repeated at different scales and concerning different people.

  • Tourism in Maldives ‐ Impact of Coast and Challenges
    Tourism in Maldives ‐ Impact of Coast and challenges. Ms. Aminath Nuzla Hameed Ministry of Tourism Introduction ∗ Maldives is a small island nation, having 90 percent of its territory covered in water. The country comprises of 1192 low‐lying islands which make up less than 2 percent of the total area. Its population of 338, 442 (2012) inhabits 192 of its 1,192 islands. ∗ Maldives atolls encompass a territory spread over roughly 90,000 square kilometres, making the country one of the world's most geographically dispersed. ∗ The Maldives is the smallest Asian country in both pppopulation and land area. With an average ground level elevation of 1.5 metres (4 ft 11 in) above sea level, it is the planet's lowest country. It is also the country with the lowest natural highest point in the world, at 242.4 metres (7 ft 10 in). ∗ Tourism, fishing and shipping are the most vital sectors of the economy. Tourism accounts for more than 30 percent of GDP and over 60 percent of foreign currency earnings. Tourism in the Maldives ∗ In the late 1960s a team of experts from the United Nations Development Programme went to Maldives and concluded their report on the prospects for tourism in the country by mentioning that tourism prospects in the Maldives were non‐existent (as there was no bank or an airport or electricity on the islands. And the only way to get around was by sailing, very slowly, in a traditional dhoni). However, tourism has flourished since the opening of the first resort in 1972.

However, the country also boasts of a rich culture and history that have yet to be explored and experienced by the hundreds of thousands of tourists visiting the country every year. The purpose of this paper is, therefore, to explore the possibility of integrating the cultural and heritage resources of the country into its successful tourism industry. The paper examines existing literature on the experiences of other countries that are using their culture and heritage as part of their tourism product. Through the research certain negative impacts such as commodification of the cultural products and loss of traditional values were identified. It was also identified that a successful integration of the tourism product with the cultural and heritage assets would not only enrich the visitors experience, but also help manage the rare and fragile resources in a sustainable manner.

One week of surveys was carried out in July 2018 by local and international citizen scientists and a professional reef biologist in Ari atoll, the Maldives. Surveys using the Reef Check methodology were undertaken at three ‘inner’ and three ‘outer’ atoll sites and concentrated on re- visiting permanent monitoring sites that have been surveyed since 2011. Most of the locations surveyed in 2016 and 2017 were revisited to record medium-term impacts of the severe El Niño bleaching event in May 2016. Coral cover for all North Ari sites varied between 39% and 0% with a mean of 15% live hard coral cover. Inner Ari atoll reefs (mean 2% cover) were found to be more severely bleached than the outer reef sites (mean 27%). This mirrors last year’s data. Some inner reefs (e.g.

  • Maldives As a Backpacker's Destination
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences 144 ( 2014 ) 256 – 263 5th Asia Euro Conference 2014 Maldives as a backpacker’s destination: Supply and demand perspectives Fathimath Nausheen Ibrahim Zubaira,*, Frederic Bouchona aSchool of Hospitality, Tourism and Culinary Arts, Taylor’s University, No.1, Jalan Taylor’s, 47500 Subang Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia Abstract Tourism policies in countries are often driven not only by economic agenda, but they are also shaped by socio-cultural factors. Islamic countries have had different approaches to seaside tourism development. Since the 1970’s and the opening to tourism, the Maldives have been developing strategies to contain tourists to private islands and minimize the contact with locals, whom would live on different islands. Tourism has long since been established as a ‘luxury’ destination, housing some of the world’s most expensive resorts and top brands, while entertaining little to none middle and low-budget tourists. This situation has changed with the recent laws allowing operation of guesthouses in local islands other than the capital city of Male’ and the island situated next to the international airport, some parts of the country have experienced a boom in guesthouse tourism. Opportunities for a variety of local business ventures (such as watersports providers, hostels and food outlets) opened up creating more community involvement, which contrasts greatly with the past tourism organisation. More and more guesthouses are opening in different islands and atolls of the Maldives, providing cheaper holidaying options and a more “authentic” experience compared to the one- island one-resort concept. This situation, by its novelty, creates new opportunities and challenges in the socio-cultural context of the Maldives and remains debated.
