Island of Huraa in the Republic of Maldives - Kaafu Atoll

Huraa Island is located north of Male, the capital of Maldives. Carefully placed between the islands Himmafushi and Thulusdhoo, it is home to about 750 people. It is not far off from the airport and a 25 – 35 minute speed boat ride from the airport will get you there.

North of the island is covered, rather unusually, by a brackish water mangrove with a sparse coconut plantation around the island. The resort island Four Seasons Kuda Huraa is barely 30 seconds away which is quite segregated from the rest of the island. There’s a lot of interesting things to talk about in this island which we’ll be doing under the next few headings.

2. About the Island Huraa Island is located north of Male, the capital of Maldives. Carefully placed between the islands Himmafushi and Thulusdhoo, it is home to about 750 people. It is not far off from the airport and a 25 – 35 minute speed boat ride from the airport will get you there. North of the island is covered, rather unusually, by a brackish water mangrove with a sparse coconut plantation around the island. The resort island Four Seasons Kuda Huraa is barely 30 seconds away which is quite segregated from the rest of the island. There’s a lot of interesting things to talk about in this island which we’ll be doing under the next few headings.
3. Island Facilities The island of Huraa is a rather small island, so do not expect too many facilities. The island boasts only one café which is mostly used by locals. Guest houses mostly provide “all inclusive” services, leaving little (if any) need for the café.
4. There are three neighboring resort islands not far off the island. Four Seasons Island Resort, which was earlier mentioned, is only about 100 – 200 meters away from Huraa; while the others, Club Med Kani Resort and Chaaya Island Resort Dhonveli, are a tad farther. On the whole, the island is home to 5 guest houses. So, there are enough facilities available for foreigners to lodge.
5. There are many gift shops around Huraa from which you can pick up souvenirs. For the most part, souvenir prices in Huraa are usually lower than those in Male, so be sure to pick up your souvenirs from here if you’ll be visiting. If you are looking for locally made souvenirs, you’ll find more of those here in Huraa than in Male.
6. Island Activities There are more than a few activities to keep you occupied in Huraa. The island organizes a bikini beach where you can swim, snorkel, and get some tan in the sun, playing around in your bikinis. The beach environment promotes other activities as snorkeling or dolphin watching, making Huraa ideal for beach holidays. Prepare to enjoy some refreshing time with barbecue on a picnic island. Safari ride and photos with sharks and turtles, water surfing on a surfboard, wetbike, and catamaran, and wakeboarding among others. With lots of coral reef, your time under the water can be as fulfilling as that which you spend atop the waters.
7. You would also have the opportunity to receive some certification after completing an Open Water course. Of course, as a beach community, you can also expect training in surfing and diving which you can begin to practice right away. Indeed, there are a plethora of activities you could enjoy during your vacation getaway on the island. As a traditionally fishing community, you can always visit the local fishermen at the harbor, watching them as they land their catch. And when watching begins to bore you, you can always try your hands on fishing yourself. Bring out the foodie in you as you explore the delicious local dishes on offer. With lots of palm trees, crabs, and fruits in general, you have more than a few eating options. From the amazing hamburgers to the enticing stuffed baguettes prepared in the local bakery, you wouldn’t be missing home too much.
8. From the picturesque views to the rather comfortable guest houses, and all of the possible beach and water activities, you’ll find your stay in Huraa refreshing. With the islands of Diffushi, Thulusdhoo, and Himmafushi all present, you can take the time to visit one or some of these as part of your getaway.
