Availability

Reliable on resort islands. Local island supply varies; small outages are common.

Sockets & hotels

Resort islands typically have Type G and Type D in the same outlet. Older Maldivian guesthouses may have ungrounded Type C.

Diesel-dominated; solar growing.

Practical tips

  • A universal adapter with G and D is safest.
  • Bring a power bank for inter-island ferry days.
