The beach of love

The Maldives is a group of 1200 separate tiny islands set in the Indian Ocean with India and Sri Lanka being the closest neighboring countries. Only approximately 17% or one-sixth of these 1200 islands in the Maldives are populated. Male is the capital and the most densely inhabited island. But while Male, it seems, is simply bursting from the seams, there certainly are no space problems on the other islands. Male alone holds about a third of the Maldivian population while the remaining are scattered around various other islands.
