Public Ferry
From Dhangethi Island, head towards the main jetty located on the western side of the island. Take a public ferry to Omadhoo. The ferry service typically departs once in the morning and once in the afternoon. Be sure to check the schedule ahead of time as it may vary. The ferry ride takes approximately 1 hour and costs around $3-$5 USD per person.
Private Speedboat
For a quicker and more comfortable option, you can hire a private speedboat from Dhangethi to Omadhoo. To arrange this, visit one of the local tour operators or inquire at your accommodation. The speedboat ride takes about 30 minutes and costs approximately $50-$100 USD, depending on the number of passengers.
Combination of Public Ferry and Taxi
If you prefer to combine transportation, you can take a public ferry from Dhangethi to the nearby island of Dhigurah first. From Dhigurah, you can catch another ferry to Omadhoo. This option may take longer but offers a chance to explore another island. The total cost would be around $5-$8 USD, and the journey may take 1.5-2 hours depending on ferry schedules.
