    I looooved my stay in Dhigurah. I stayed in Maafushi too, but the two don’t compare. Also scuba diving…. Both are just as beautiful, but when we go back we’re going back to Dhigurah and diving with oceanholics again. Honestly such a great gang and they made us feel at home ❤

    As a Maldivian and With Experience.
    Dhigurah is better than Maafushi, Cause Dhigurah is silence and many People don’t visit there, cause dhigurah is located in South Ari Atoll which is people have to Cross the Channel is Called (Ali huras Kandu) is a Second Largest sea in the Maldives. Many people chose to go from Aeroplane to Ari Atoll. To Go Maafushi you don’t need to Cross Large Sea Channel, it is more cheaper and Faster. Also Maafushi has 2 Private Company which is giving Ferry Service 6 Times a Day. Means 60 to 45 People in a Round from Male - Maafushi. According to My research Maafushi has more than 60 Guest House/Hotels unlike Dhigurah. 😢

    Hi. Very good options for travelling the Maldives on a budget are Thoddoo and Omadhoo and Hangnamedhoo. In some cases you can take the local ferry from one island to another. Maldives means Home of the tuna by the way. Greetings, Dominik.

    You guys are the best. Was debating between these two. Think I’ll go with Maafushi and take an overnight or day trip to Dhigura.

    • @Livingtheglobe

      Day trip might be tight because there are only 2 speed boats per day. Best to stay overnight

    Another super useful video--thanks! I wonder if the reason they gave you a hot dog when the menu said "sausage" is because the Maldives is an Islamic nation and therefore doesn't serve pork or alcohol on the local islands?

    • @Livingtheglobe
      @Livingtheglobe  Před 3 měsíci

      Reach out to your hotel or guest house on Dhigurah and ask them to book the ferry for you. Locals get discounts. But yes book in advance

    Hi!! Thanks for your video! I read, in a post on tripadvisor, that the bikini beach, in Dhigurah, has been greatly reduced by the Maldivians and that the sandbank is not bikini free, this is true or not? and i've another question, December is a good month for whale shark and manta? Thnaks so much

    • @Livingtheglobe
      @Livingtheglobe  Před 6 měsíci +1

      There is only a small area for the locals where it says no bikini. Everone on the sandbank was in the bikini in March 2023 not sure if anything changed now. Yes, December is perfect for both. Whaleshakes are there all year around but during monsoon season it might not be safe to go. Anyway, it is never a guarantee to see a whaleshark

    With you’re amazing video you helped me to take a final decision , my husband and I are going to Maldives in April and we were hesitating between the two islands but now no hesitation we are choosing dhigurah 😊 thank you for your precious informations, I have a question,do you recommend bliss hotel or can we found something better ?

    • @Livingtheglobe
      @Livingtheglobe  Před měsícem +1

      We are excited about your vacation. Bliss is good but it depends what you like. The rooms are really small, no room to keep your luggage open. Maybe the have bigger rooms. Their breakfast is really good. Wifi was bad but they were looking to fix it. The saff & location are excellent. Keep in mind they are tours are limited to specific days and get cancelled if not enough people go. If tours are important to you, i would look for a bigger place with more staible tours. Or book a private tour

      Great question. When we flew our drone We ran it through the manager 1st that was why we were able to fly. They said people fly drone and look into other ppls over water villa so they stop it. However I still see many people flying their drone and I'm sure they dont ask they just fly.
