Nilandhe South: nine resorts including Niyama and St. Regis Vommuli. The atoll has its own airfield at Kudahuvadhoo, cutting the transfer to a domestic flight.

Getting there

Kudahuvadhoo gives a forty-minute domestic flight, taking the atoll out of the daylight constraint and opening it to late arrivals.

Typical transfer from Velana International: domestic flight plus boat, about 40 minutes. Airfields on the atoll: Kudahuvadhoo Airport (DDD).

Season and demand

The atoll works on november–april, dry season, and its quarterly figures are not in the Ministry table we hold. The row shows a dash rather than a zero, because the gap is in our copy of the source and not in the atoll.
