By AirGetting Around by Air

Internal air services are operated by Maldivian (Q2) (www.island.com.mv), linking Malé with Kaadedhdhoo, Kadhdhoo and Gan. There are also services to Hanimaadhoo in the north.

There are also two seaplane companies operating seaplane transfers from Malé airport to individual resorts. These are Trans Maldivian Airways (www.tma.com.mv) and Maldivian Air Taxi (www.maldivianairtaxi.com). These services are also available for trips around the islands.

By BoatGetting Around by Water

Visitors generally remain on their resort island for the duration of their stay, although island-hopping trips by dhoni charters are widely available. High-speed boats usually meet arrivals at the airport, supplied by the resort they are booked with, and boats are available for hire at the ferry counter near the jetty area. The speedboats connect the airport with North and South Malé Atolls.

By CarGetting Around by Road

Travel on individual islands does not present any problem since few of them take longer than half an hour to cross on foot. In Malé, it is possible to take taxis.
