Access points
Getting to Feydhoo
543.7 km from Velana International Airport
Scheduled Speedboat
From S. Feydhoo
20 min • $3.56 per person
Daily except Friday
No scheduled public ferry connects Malé to Addu Atoll. The RTL network's Addu/Fuvahmulah service is a local/regional link within the southern atolls, not a route to/from Malé. A separate local ferry terminal on Feydhoo itself connects to Hulhumeedhoo (Meedhoo) within Addu, but this does not serve as a way to reach Feydhoo from Malé.
Not suited to late arrivals
Domestic Flight
From Velana International Airport (VIA), Malé
1 hr 35 min • $209 per person
Daily
Maldivian operates flights daily between VIA and Gan International Airport. Gan International Airport is on a separate island from Feydhoo. The two are linked by the paved Addu causeway/link road, so the onward journey to Feydhoo village is a 10-20 minute road transfer by taxi or the local Addu bus (not a boat leg). Fare is priced per person for one-way and subject to change without prior notice.
