Seaplane
The most direct way to reach Dhigali Maldives is via seaplane from Velana International Airport (MLE) in Malé. Upon arrival at MLE, a resort representative will escort you to the seaplane terminal. The scenic flight takes approximately 45 minutes, offering breathtaking aerial views of the Maldivian atolls. Dhigali coordinates the seaplane transfers, and the cost is typically USD 450 per adult for a round trip. Children aged 2-11 may have a reduced rate, and infants under 2 usually fly for free. Note that seaplanes only operate during daylight hours.
Domestic Flight and Speedboat
An alternative to the seaplane is a domestic flight from Velana International Airport (MLE) to Ifuru Airport (IFU) or Dharavandhoo Airport (DRV), followed by a speedboat transfer to Dhigali. The domestic flight takes around 20 minutes, and the speedboat ride takes approximately 50 minutes. The combined transfer time is about 70 minutes. The cost for the domestic flight and speedboat transfer is around USD 440 per adult for a round trip. Children aged 2-11 may have a reduced rate, and infants under 2 usually travel for free.
