What you do in the Maldives is entirely up to you. The islands are so easy to explore - interconnected by regular boat services, or you can hire your own boat - or simply book a two week retreat in a luxurious Maldives resort. We do recommend that if you want to explore that you take a boat to one or two of the uninhabited islands to get a feel for what these exquisite island paradises were like before tourism really took root. If you do feel like a little break from the beaches, then perhaps consider exploring the capital Malé.
