Melissaused in Maldives

I used the Airalo eSIM for the Maldives (Ooredoo). It worked well in Male and on Veligandu resort island. It connected right away.

sofiaused in Maldives

I used the Yesim eSIM in the Maldives and had a stable connection on larger islands such as Malé, Kudahuvadhoo, Naifaru and Thinadhoo. However, there are hardly any high speeds, especially on smaller islands. But it's good enough for emails, Instagram and WhatsApp.
