| January | Very hot....lovely |

| January | The weather was perfect. Blue skies, bright sunshine a constant 30 degrres C each day with a gentle breeze. |
| February | Clear blue sky and crystal clear water for the whole of our holiday, dont reaaly think it gets any better than this. |
| February | Beautiful! It was sunny 99% of time, occasional cloud at night. Only rain we got was the morning we were leaving, and it was only a short but ferocious shower. Temperature was very high and quite dry. |
| February | beautiful! very hot and wonderful cool breeze in the evening |
| February | Consistently warm. The only time it got slightly uncomfortably hot was midday to mid-afternoon. Sea breezes were stronger than we expected, causing rippling effect on the water which made snorkelling slightly more challenging. Also more cloud that you would imagine at this time of year but no rain. The sun dips very quickly |
| February | lovely |
| February | Great |
| February | Sunny and hot. We had some cloud and even rain one day but I don't think anything in the world could spoil Komandoo - certainly not a little rain. |
| February | Hot sunny and very pleasant |
| February | perfect just the right. Not to hot not to cold warm breeze in the evening. Impressive storm as we left. |
| March | Beautiful sunny days with temperatures around 32 degrees. Only rain we saw was when we were tucked up in bed so in my book it was perfect weather |
| March | Hot - Clear blue skys with the odd thunderstorm that you could see rolling in from the other atols. |
| March | The weather was amazing during our stay, clear blue sky and not a rain cloud in sight. |
| March | Very good. Sunny almost all of the time. One short shower during the day. |
| March | Perfect weather , very hot every day. Maybe only issue was humidity was high , but then its tropical ! |
| April | Hot, clear blue skies most days. Average Temperature about 32. Humid at night. |
| April | Everyday apart from the last day of our 14 night holiday was sunny, with just one day when it rained at night! Our last day was still hot but overcast, but still managed to get sun burn, own fault. |
| April | Excellent - all sunshine |
| April | Not going till next year |
| April | the weather was hot and humid , enjoyed this very much |
| April | It rained for the first 5 days. We experienced a cyclone on the Monday evening which was exciting. After 5 days the weather was gorgeous! We still tanned through the clouds though and we could always sit out for part of the day. |
| May | It was just getting into their rainey season but we had mostly sun. It did rain several times over our 2 weeks but often late at night (with thunder and lightening out at sea) and when during the day it was over quickly and dried up within minutes |
| May | Weather was fantastic for the 2 weeks we where there. It only rained a bit in the evenings for just a few days |
| May | Very hot and really sunny. |
| May | Very warm, day and night. No jumpers required! Some days were overcast but it was still around 28 / 29 degrees all the time. It did rain on a couple of days but they were short, sharp showers and again the temp remained the same. The rain did not interfere with the holiday at all. |
| May | Hot with occasional spout of rain. The day we were set to leave there was heavy |
| May | Very hot and very windy, which abated a bit on the last two days. |
| May | rained sometimes |
| May | The weather was excellent for the first few days. We were then advised by the barman that the weather would change on the 21st of May because the Monsoon season would start then. Sure enough he was dead right. Cloud and rain for the remainder of our stay. |
| May | The weather was great. hot and sunny everyday. Although the week we went can be hit or miss, we certainly never saw any rain, a litte cloud but not much |
| May | Generally good with the odd torrential downpour, but it was the wet season afterall! |
| June | Ideal temperatures of around 30 t0 32 degrees. Strong showers, often thundery most days, but only lasting a short while, often no more than 15-20mins. Really helps clear the air actually! |
| June | Beautiful, sunny every day but not too hot prob in the late 20's, early 30's. Cooler in the evenings but still quite warm. |
| June | Hot and Sunny. Occassional heavy showers but short lived. Average temp 33C |
| June | Generally sunny every day, just a few rain showers for around 10 minutes on two out of the nine days we were there and a little windy at night but that was refreshing. These comments relate to the Baros island but we heard from other guests that the weather was not as good on other islands at the same time of year. |
| June | Mostly Sunny with a few tropical showers. |
| June | Concidering we went during their rainy season our first week was excellent sunshine, not a single cloud. Temperatures late twenties. Evenings lovely and warm too, didn't need many clothes. Second week we did experience the odd afternoon shower, which lasted a couple of minutes, but still warm, but not a problem if already in the pool! |
| June | Hot and sunny for 2/3 of our holiday. Rained a few times on the other days. |
| June | Predominantly sunny, and warm. a few clouds in the early afternoon. a couple of afternoons stayed overcast but still very warm. a couple of showers through the week (heavy) |
| June | Hot and sunny, with a short rainstorm on the last afternoon! |
| July | We had two consecutive days of rain in the first week. Pretty heavy rain at times. We then had extremely hot and humid weather for the remainder of our holiday with the occasional 6am downpour. These lasted all of 10 minutes. There were a few clouds at times and there's always dark clouds out at sea but no more rain. We think for low-season that we got off lightly, however annoying it was. |
| July | When we arrived on 6/7 it was overcast and we were concerned. However the sun came through and the 6th and 7th were both sunny days - perfect. Tropical storm hit on 8th and lasted the whole day. Sun then came out for the rest of the holiday, intermittent cloud cover but nothing to concern us and we came back with great tans. The locals stated that we were very luck with the weather that week. |
| July | The weather on arrival was grey and wet and plane's to the Islands were cancelled but we had booked a boat so it was fine but a bit rough. For the whole two weeks after that it was glorious with only one evening of rain. |
| July | Constant 30 degrees. Most days were sunny with only 1 day of heavy rain which lasted a few hours and one evening of overnight rain. Locals did say that the weather was unusual for the time of year and more accurately represented what you would typically see in February. A different experience to 2007 where we travelled at the same time and had 5 days of non-stop rain. |
| July | 2 weeks in the Maldives and the weather was excellent. It was sunny the full two weeks with only about 2 or 3 showers which from recollection did not last long. There was no wind over the 2 weeks which was great for lying on the beach but not if you are a windsurfer! |
| July | We loved the weather when we where there, it was very hot and humid. We where there for 12days and we seen rain 3 times, once during the day for an hour and twice during the evening. There was 2days that it was overcast, abit cloudy. I still managed to sunbathe for the whole day and get I got a great tan at the end of the holiday. We then went to Dubai for 6days and the weather was perfect as well, it was hot but bearable, we walked around the shops and streets with no unbearable heat it was managable. We sunbathed and it was perfect, with a dipin the pool to cool down. |
| July | perfect 30-32c the water was 30c and even at 18 meters it was 29c evening rain at times |

| July | Although it was classed as rainy season it only rained for 10 minutes one morning, and it was still 30+ dgerees and sunny. The weather was perfect, averaging 34 degrees, with water a cool 29; even at 18m deep! |
| July | The first week was mostly dry and hot but overcast with cloudy skies and quite windy. The second week was calmer with blue skies and sunshine. There were a couple of thunder and lightning storms at night with very heavy rain. |
| July | first day was rain, and i cant complain about the rest it was beautiful clear sunny sky for 2 weeks. some days it was to hot to lay about but still come back with a lovely golden tan. |
| August | The Weather was wonderful, it wasn't to hot the temperatures were just right and comfortable to be. As for the rain it was raining mainly in the evenings but then it didn't really effect our honeymoon at all, we enjoyed our time out there. |
| August | Initially very wet, then after 3 days of rain the next 4 days were sunny with the odd shower. The following 3 days returned to rainy weather, then the sun reappeared for the last few days. |
| August | For the 1st 4 days of our 2 week stay at Kuredu Island Resort the weather was good - sunshine every day and rain most nights. For the rest of our holiday the weather was not good - heavy rain just about every day with a tiny break of high clouds but no blue sky on a couple of the days. Unfortunately this bad weather affected the viz on our diving. The bad weather did not detract from the otherwise good time we had there as we come from a place where it is hot and sunny so the change was welcomed. In the past years we have been to the Maldives we have been very lucky with the weather - the possible bad weather was not unexpected. |
| August | The weather was everything we expected as we had looked at forecasts beforehand - overall very warm with some humidity during the day and mild and comfortable in the evening. We had a wee bit of rain - but we were in the maldives and it was warm rain. |
| August | We were there for a week and 4/7 days were rainy. |
| September | Very hot |
| September | We were very lucky with the weather, only one morning of rain and a couple of showers. |
| September | First week was overcast and breezy but very warm. Second week, wow hot hot hot |
| September | Hot every day little patchs of rain but nothing much |
| October | Fair. Half rain and half sun. But I understand the amount of rain we had was unusual for that time of year. Weather didn't spoil holiday - just relaxed in jacuzzi instead!! |
| October | The weather was sunny, very hot 30C + from the day we landed up until the day we flew off our idyllic island which was around the 11th November. Two weeks prior to our arrival the island had suffered torrential rain non stop - so we were very very lucky. |
| October | Absolutely perfect in every way. |
| November | rainy :( |
| November | fantastic! besides a little warm rain on one afternoon only sunshine, hot, perfect beach weather |
| November | Mainly sunny and hot, occasional showers and cloud |
| November | Very hot and quite humid. The daytime temperature was at least 30 degrees C during the 2 weeks we were there. We had a couple of thunderstorms and tropical showers during the early evening but these were quite an exciting experience in themselves. |
| November | Mostly good, but did have a few days of rain/cloud |
| November | Not a cloud in the sky - I experienced glorious sunshine for my entire trip. |
| November | <p>Fine</p> |
| December | Hot sun all day. I seem to remember that we had the odd 2 minute shower but memories of that are vague. The island wa squite windy with a hot breeze. This actually made the heat bearable. We could not wera bare feet on the decking for fear of burning or feet Fabulous |
| December | Fantastic, hot and very sunny all the time. |
| December | Mainly very dry and warm, the odd tropical shower in the evening. |
| December | Mixed rain clouds sun |
