01 Overview
The North Malé Atoll is the most accessible and most varied collection of resort islands in the Maldives, reachable by speedboat from Malé International Airport in 20 to 45 minutes. The atoll contains everything from budget guesthouses on local islands like Maafushi to boutique mid-range resorts with spectacular house reefs. The underwater world — mantas, whale sharks, sea turtles, reef sharks, and the most vivid coral gardens in the Indian Ocean — is the primary experience, and it is extraordinary.
Highlights
- House reef snorkelling — sea turtles, black-tip reef sharks, Napolean wrasse within metres of shore
- Overwater bungalow sunrise — the classic Maldivian experience, at its most accessible in the North Atoll
- Whale shark snorkelling at South Ari Atoll — largest fish on Earth, regularly encountered
- Bioluminescent plankton beach at night — blue glowing waves on dark beaches
- Sunset dolphin cruise — spinner dolphins in the Maldivian channel at dusk
