Thiladhunmathi: The atoll of heroes and pristine beaches

-


Thiladhunmathi atoll (also refered as Haa Alif Atoll - Ha) has one of most clearest pristine beaches in the Maldives.  You can spend 1000US$ per night or less than 100USD$ per day to enjoy it. The scenery and the beauty is the same in both cases! The latter option gives you the choice of experiencing real culture, hospitality of local Maldivians and make friends of a new kind at budget prices!


The atoll also has an important place in the history of Maldives. Mohamed Thakurufaan, the Maldivian national hero who helped to end Portuguese rule over Maldives is from the island of Utheem in Thiladhunmathi Atoll. His simple palace is the epitome of Maldivian local craft which will transport you to another era… specifically 400 years back. The palace and the beauty of island are revered by many foreigners and locals alike for its significance in Maldivian history.   You can visit the island of Utheem during your stay and enjoy local history and folk tales from the very people that created it.
