A journey that is part of the experience


Located in the Gaafu Alifu Atoll, Falhumaafushi is reached via a domestic flight of approximately 55 minutes to Kooddoo, followed by a speedboat transfer of around seven minutes. The journey is part of the island experience, setting the scene for a stay shaped by the surrounding ocean.

A reef to discover at different depths


The reef descends from approximately one metre to 28 metres, offering different perspectives on the underwater environment. These variations in depth make the site suitable for different levels of exploration, from observing marine life in shallower waters to discovering deeper reef formations.

The resort has a PADI five-star dive centre, providing access to guided diving experiences for guests wishing to explore the surrounding waters.

A rich range of water activities, with a focus on non-motorised experiences


Beyond diving, the lagoon and surrounding waters provide opportunities for a range of marine activities. These experiences allow guests to discover the atoll from different perspectives while making the ocean a central part of the stay.
