The Haa-Alifu and Haa Dhaalu Atoll...

...we are the pioneers...

After your arrival in Male you will use the domestic flight to Hanimaadhoo. While the flight you will enjoy a fantastic view over the atolls and islands of the maldives. Don't forget your video and filmcameras.
 

In Hanimaadhoo you get picked up from us and will get transported to the boat.

The Haa-Alifu-Atoll is the northern atoll from the Maldives and the distance to the capital Male is 480 miles.

This atoll has a special meaning for the Maldivians. Here is the birth island of the nations hero Muhammad Thakurufaanu (1573-1585). Sultan Ghaazee Muhammad Thakurufaanu freed Maldives from the Portuguese rule.

The capital Dhidhoo has about 10.000 people that live on the 16 populated islands, 24 more islands in the Maldives are inhabited.

 

The Amba was the first and the only diving yacht on the north of the Maldives. We start our diving trips from Hanimaadhoo  in the Haa Alifu-Atoll. Then transfer to the north atoll of the Maldives from Male via a small airplane (a half hour flight).

Kids on the natives islands are happy to see white faces.
