North Male Atoll Resorts
To put it in a simple statement, North Male Atoll is the focal point of Maldives. It is home to the capital city of Maldives, the Maldives international airport, and North Male Atoll resorts along with numerous local islands, each with its distinct environment.
When you first arrive to Maldives, you land in the Velana international airport, the international airport of Maldives in North Male’ Atoll. The Velana international airport is located in the island of Hulhule’ which is connected to Hulhumale’ and Male’ City through the recently built “Sinamale” bridge.
Male’ city is the capital of Maldives. It’s a place where the streets are busy and business blooms at an incredible rate everyday. Hulhumale is the less hectic and still developing city of Maldives, also considered as the youth city of Maldives. Both Hulhumale and Male’ city is vastly different from the local island of Maldives. Busy in traffic and filled with concrete tall buildings, it portrays a more modern and hectic environment in comparison to the simple and quiet lifestyle across the local island in Maldives. The island of Thilafushi as known as the “trash island”, developed as a solution for the waste disposal problem in Male’ city also resides in North Male’ Atoll.
