The Male Airport is surprising small and unorganized given how popular the destination is. They are building a new huge airport but the one currently in operation has only 6 gates. The sea plane transport company also seemed poorly organized. We had delays both way. But the Kagi Island was perfect.

the trip where we swim with Whale shark and manta rays. The beach, the color of the water...everything
