Sehenswertes in Malediven

Gulhi

Located in the South Malé Atoll, just 20 km from the capital of the Maldives, Gulhi is a small local island that offers an authentic experience far from the luxury of traditional resorts. Easily accessible by ferry or speedboat from Malé, this hidden gem captivates with its peaceful atmosphere, white sandy beaches, and turquoise waters ideal for snorkeling and diving. Vibrant coral reefs surround the island, where visitors can swim alongside tropical fish, turtles, and even small reef sharks—all just a few meters from the shore.In addition to its paradisiacal beaches, Gulhi surprises with a strong local identity and a slow-paced way of life. The community, primarily devoted to fishing and sustainable tourism, offers visitors the chance to experience Maldivian culture up close. A fascinating curiosity: Gulhi is renowned for its dhoni boat workshops—traditional Maldivian vessels that are still handcrafted using age-old techniques.
