Exploring Addu Atoll

Comprising seven inhabited and about 20 uninhabited islands, Addu Atoll extends the islands of the Maldives across the Equator and into the southern hemisphere.

The heart-shaped atoll is about 18 kilometres wide and 15 kilometres long. It is home to a stunning coral reef formation that is the largest in the country. Unspoiled Maldivian villages and local coffee shops along this route provide an authentic setting in which to explore the fascinating lifestyle and culture of the real Maldives.
