This feels like a legit travel tip. A potentially, vacation saving post: When you pick between the Maldives or the Seychelles, where should you go? What’s the difference between these geographically similar tropical vacation spots? This might surprise you. It came as a shock to me.

The Seychelles is the clear winner. Why? No restrictions on swimwear or booze. The Maldives is a deeply religious Islamic country. No booze. No bikinis. You can pay top dollar at a resort for a beer and risk getting arrested on the beach for wearing a swimsuit… or…. you can go to the Seychelles. Check out this guide from Wild Viking Travels. It was an eye opener. I always thought the Maldives was the hotspot!
