Ari Atoll

The almost rectangular alignment spreads the islands over an area of about 89 by 3 kilometres (55.3 by 1.9 miles).

It has been divided in two sections for administrative purposes, Northern Ari Atoll and Southern Ari Atoll consisting of 105 islands.

Ari Atoll is part of the zone designated for tourist development in the Maldives.

Each island resort is self-contained with accommodation and recreational facilities, such as tennis court.

Scuba diving is the most popular tourist activity in the Maldives.
