The Australia government has reviewed its travel advice on the Maldives but has not changed its general warning that visitors should “exercise cautionâ€.
It suggests visitors should “avoid public gatherings and demonstrations, particularly in Male, as they may turn violentâ€.
Several street demonstrations in capital island of Male last week injured at least nine police officers and six civilians.
Both Britain and the US noted in revised travel warnings that demonstrations in Male could get out of hand.
Most tourists travel straight from the airport at Male to their outlying resorts without going to the capital.
“The demonstrations have not targeted foreigners, and there have not been any demonstrations in the resort islands or outside of Male,” the US embassy in Colombo added.
