With approximately 3,515 arrivals daily, Maldives is nearing its goal of welcoming 1.5 million tourists this year. The numbers have been steadily increasing since the archipelago reopened its borders in July 2020, after the tourism industry was at a standstill for nearly four months.

India continues to hold the highest market share, with over 22 percent of tourists being from the neighbouring nation. Russia comes at a close second, with 17.3 percent. Other top markets include Germany, the USA, the UK and Saudi Arabia.
