    Maldives is a country of South Asia , situated in the Indian Ocean , south-southwest of India . It consists of approximately 1,190 coral islands grouped in a double chain of 26 atolls , spread over roughly 90,000 square kilometers, making this one of the most disparate countries in the world. Composed of live coral reefs and sand bars , the atolls are situated atop a submarine ridge 960 kilometers long that rises abruptly from the depths of the Indian Ocean and runs from north to south. Only near the southern end of this natural coral barricade do two open passages permit safe ship navigation from one side of the Indian Ocean to the other through the territorial waters of Maldives. For administrative purposes the Maldives government organized these atolls into nineteen administrative divisions The largest island of Maldives is Gan , which belongs to Laamu Atoll or Hahdhummathi Maldives.

    GEOGRAPHY
    Maldives Table of Contents Maldives consists of approximately 1,200 coral islands grouped in a double chain of twenty-seven atolls. Composed of live coral reefs and sand bars, these atolls are situated atop a submarine ridge 960 kilometers long that rises abruptly from the depths of the Indian Ocean and runs from north to south. Only near the southern end of this natural coral barricade do two open passages permit safe ship navigation from one side of the Indian Ocean to the other through the territorial waters of Maldives. For administrative purposes the Maldives government organized these atolls into nineteen administrative divisions. Most atolls consist of a large, ring-shaped coral reef supporting numerous small islands. Islands average only one to two square kilometers in area, and lie between one and 1.5 meters above mean sea level. The highest island is situated at three meters above sea level. Maldives has no hills or rivers. Although some larger atolls are approximately fifty kilometers long from north to south, and thirty kilometers wide from east to west, no individual island is longer than eight kilometers. Each atoll has approximately five to ten inhabited islands; the uninhabited islands of each atoll number approximately twenty to sixty. Several atolls, however, consist of one large, isolated island surrounded by a steep coral beach. The most notable example of this type of atoll is the large island of Fua Mulaku situated in the middle of the Equatorial Channel.

    Maldives Geography
    July 25, 2009 by Islandhopper
    Filed under Maldives Climate The Geographical Structure of Maldives Maldives geography is based upon a group of 26 coral islands which are formed by approximately 1,190 coral reef islands, and there are 20 administrative atolls along with Male which is the capital island of them all. It is a neighbor of Sri Lanka and is situated southwest of it. The view of Maldives from the air is splendid because of the beautiful patterns it makes in the clear blue sea. Maldives has numerous islands among which only 200 of them have people living there. The north-south stretch of this country is approximately 824 kilometers and from east to west it is about 129 kilometers. Maldives is more of blue water than the land because more than 99% of it is sea. Along with the Lakshadweep and Chagos Islands, Maldives forms a long submarine mountain range, on the ridge of which the coral reefs are growing. The Maldivian atolls are very unique and each of them has a coral reef which encloses several lagoons and natural channels. ‘Faru’ is strange reef structure which you can only find in Maldives, and refers to round reefs in a line. Moving through the atolls is not a difficult task, though there are strong winds and currents at times, especially during the monsoons. There are also nice waves making this a great surfing destination. Most of the Maldives islands are small enough to walk from one end to another in less than ten minutes. The longest one is Hithadhoo which is around 8 kilometers long and is situated in the Addu atoll. These islands sound pretty small according to their sizes, but occupy a vast area because of the openness, the crystal clear blue sea and the beaches which merge with each other. Spending your time in these beautiful Maldives islands, below the blue skies and a calm environment, gives your mind and soul the ultimate relaxation and peacefulness.

    The atolls of the Maldives are formed from coral structures, separated by lagoons. The atolls are part of a greater structure known as the Laccadives-Chagos Ridge, which stretches over 2000 kilometres. The islands are low lying with the highest point at approximately 8 feet above sea level. 'Faru' or ring-shaped reef structures form the atolls and these reefs provide natural defense against wind and wave action, on these delicate islands.
