Dharavandhoo

Dharavandhoo (Dhivehi: ދަރަވަންދޫ) is one of the inhabited islands of Baa Atoll.

The island is 116.53 km (72 mi; 63 nmi) north of the country's capital, Malé.

[2] This island is surrounded by clear waters known as Dharavandhoo Thila and Hanifaru Bay; which are famous amongst divers around the world, for it is a sanctuary for a variety of marine life, including manta rays and whale sharks.

This globally renowned eco-life zone is now strictly protected by law.

Inner harbour was first dredged by MTCC, in the last four months of 1997.
