Maaranfushi lies within the southern lagoon of Kaafu Atoll where shallow reefs support small coral islands. The island formed through the gradual accumulation of coral sand deposited along the reef crest. Historically islands of this scale were used occasionally by fishing communities rather than permanent settlements. The surrounding lagoon and reef flats define the island’s natural environment.
