About Kurehdhoo
Once home to a small local community, Kurehdhoo still bears signs of traditional Maldivian life, including an old coral-stone mosque that reflects early island settlement. The island is surrounded by vibrant coral reefs and seagrass beds, supporting rich marine biodiversity. Though uninhabited today, it remains ecologically and culturally significant within Lhaviyani Atoll.
