Dhigurah Island, a slender stretch of white sand in the Maldives’ South Ari Atoll, is gaining popularity among travellers looking for a quieter alternative to the region’s traditional resort experience. Located around 62 miles south of Malé, the island extends for just over two miles and is lined with coconut palms. Home to about 600 residents, Dhigurah offers visitors a relaxed, community-focused atmosphere. For travellers looking to explore the island and its natural surroundings, properties such as The Residence Maldives Dhigurah provide a convenient retreat close to the area’s attractions.
Beyond its shores, the waters surrounding Dhigurah are rich in marine life, with whale sharks, manta rays and dolphins often attracting travellers to the destination. Located within a protected marine zone, the island offers excellent opportunities to explore the underwater environment. Visitors can also enjoy a variety of Maldives resort activities, from snorkelling and sandbar excursions to relaxing on the soft, palm-fringed beaches at sunset. Easily accessible by speedboat from Velana International Airport, Dhigurah is also easy to explore on foot or by bicycle.
