If you prefer not to walk, you can take a local boat from Dhangethi to Dhigurah Island. Boats typically leave from the main dock in Dhangethi. You may need to pay a small fee for the boat ride, which usually costs around 5 to 10 MVR (Maldivian Rufiyaa). The boat ride should take approximately 10-15 minutes.
