About Eydhafushi
As the administrative capital of Baa Atoll, Eydhafushi has the region's highest population—over 3,433 registered population and 2317 census (2022) population within its 56.3 -hectare land area. Located on a reef platform, it has seen significant land reclamation and urban growth. Though most natural vegetation has been cleared, planned green spaces and tree-lined streets offer some respite. Historically a fishing hub, the island's economy now centers on public administration, commerce, and education. Infrastructure includes a regional hospital, government offices, banks, secondary schools, and mosques. Eydhafushi plays a vital role in connecting surrounding islands and supporting atoll-wide services, balancing modernization with cultural continuity.
