About Maadhoo

At 10.83 hectares, Maadhoo sits on a wide lagoon and is fringed with coconut palms and beach heliotropes. It features gently sloping beaches and seagrass patches frequented by turtles. Historically, Maadhoo was used by Maldivians as a stopover island during inter-atoll voyages due to its central location and fresh groundwater access. The surrounding reef is relatively shallow, with abundant juvenile fish and coral gardens.
