Escape to Thulusdhoo Island, a laid-back local island famous for its world-class surf breaks, turquoise waters, and relaxed boho atmosphere. Located just 30 minutes by speedboat from Malé, with up to 6 daily departures, this trip offers excellent flexibility to suit your schedule.
Very different from the busy capital, Thulusdhoo offers a truly authentic Maldivian experience. With sandy streets, swaying palm trees, and traditional local houses, the island has a relaxed, community feel—making it one of the best places to explore the real culture and daily life of the Maldives.
Travel by speedboat and arrive in Thulusdhoo, where palm-lined beaches and rolling waves set the scene. Start your day with a a welcome drink followed by an island tour by buggy, exploring local life, surf spots, and hidden corners of this vibrant island.
Next, enjoy a delicious beachfront lunch with your choice of local Maldivian cuisine or international dishes, all served with stunning ocean views as surfers ride one of the Maldives’ most iconic waves.
In the afternoon, you can choose how you’d like to explore the ocean. Opt for a guided turtle snorkelling trip or a dolphin cruise (both available at an additional cost), or explore the house reef at your own pace where you can see lots of corals, rays and fish at no extra charge. Whichever you prefer, our team will be happy to help guide and organise everything for you.
As the evening approaches, experience one of the island’s unique highlights—nurse shark watching at Thulusdhoo harbour. Watch these gentle sharks gather near the jetty gliding elegantly, making for a truly memorable and up-close encounter.
As the day winds down, soak in the island’s chilled, bohemian vibe before boarding your return speedboat back to Malé.
