Adjunto info de Omadhoo y de 10 islas locales recomedadas. Por aportar ideas, se habla de unas desconocidas para mi: (con BUENA PINTA, MAS LIO AUN PARA LOS INDECISOS COMO YO)
Kondey
Nolhivaram
Thinadhoo
1. ADh. Dhigurah literally translates to “Long Island”, and it is obvious as to why. Itis one of the longest islands in the Maldives which ends with a far stretched sandbank. The length is about 4km, while the width is just about 300m. Dhigurah is known for its pristine beach and was among The World’s 50 BestBeaches by FlightNetwork, but this is not the only reason to visit this island. Thesurrounding waters of Dhigurah is home to whale sharks and manta rays. You cango diving in the famous Kudarah Thila, just 10 minutes away from Dhigurah andexplore the rich underworld and swim with sharks and manta rays. The sandbank inDhigurah is an Eden of pristine natural beauty and the best place to watch a sunset.The best way to watch the sunset here is by being at the narrowest point of thesandbank!
2. AA. Thoddoo Thoddoo is the watermelon hub of Maldives. You can ask any local where you canget the best watermelon in Maldives, and they will tell you that it is Thoddoo. Nodoubt about that. This is one of the biggest islands in the Maldives and due to this, avast land is dedicated to the agricultural industry. When in Thoddoo, it is best to hire a bicycle to get around the island. The rides arespectacular with views of the green landscapes of farmland and palm trees. ThoddooRuhgandu provides frame to one of the most tropical photos you could ever take! It isa pathway with palm trees and rich greens on both sides.
3. GA. Kondey Unknown to many but the beauty of this island speaks for itself. Kondey is situatedin the Northern Huvadhu Atoll of Maldives, far away from the central Male’ region.This quiet island has a lot to offer than just the beautiful white sandy beach. It hashistoric ruins and a vast mangrove which is situated in the thick green forest thatsurrounds the island. The natural beauty of this island has been preserved very well,thanks to the comparatively few locals that still live on this island.
4. HDh. Nolhivaram Situated in Thiladhunmathi Atoll, this island is the perfect getaway from the hustleand bustle of city life. The island’s natural beauty remains untouched, and this isvisible from the island itself. As you walk around the island, you can see the island isnot densely populated and there is ample space in the houses and roads to roamaround. The beach in Nolhivaram is gently secluded from the rest of the island by trees, soyou can expect to have a private beach all to yourself if you are visiting here.This island is also home to 2 mangroves located on opposite sides of the island.
5. V. Thinadhoo V. Thinadhoo is a relatively small, but a beautiful island located in Felidhu atoll,featuring one of the best and cleanest of beaches in Maldives. The white sandybeach is almost spotless with crystal clear water splashing against the shore. You can enjoy snorkeling in the reef which is easily accessible from the beach.Despite the size of the island, it is particularly famous among tourists as Thinadhoofeatures some of the best hotels and guesthouses among local islands. You canvisit multiple uninhabited islands near Thinadhoo that are just a boat ride away.

Soy medio Brujilla...jajaja. En el tema de los barcos no puedo ayudarte... nunca he cogido ninguno en la ciudad... no me han llamado la atención... parecen pateras...jaja... así que he optado por la bici o por pasear. Aún así toda esta información la tienes en l web de la ciudad, que te recomiendo que mires, porque puedes pedir un monton de folletos a casa o desargártelos y haymuchisima información de horarios, atracciones, itinerarios, bicis, barcos, caballos etc...
Esto es lo que he encontrado de las barquitas
