Furahalha.
11 December – 23 December. Sharp, dry air and long golden hours. Peak season for a reason.
Cool, steady wind from the north-east; the driest days of the year begin. Maldivian fishermen and farmers have planned by Furahalha for centuries; the almanac says the same thing every year, and it is right more often than the forecast.
For photographs: sharp, dry air and long golden hours. Peak season for a reason. Iruvai is the peak season, so book the date early — I hold a quote for five days.
