Start your day with a pickup from your accommodation in the Greater Malé area (Velana International Airport, hotels and guesthouses in Hulhumale or Male City, Speedboat Terminal, or Cruise Ship Terminal) and travel to the Villingili Ferry Terminal. Board the ferry and take a short ride to Villingili Island.
Upon arrival, enjoy a walking tour of the island led by your guide. Learn about the island's unique history and haunted reputation, and see areas of interest, such as restaurants, cafes, beaches, dive shops, and rental shops for water sports and snorkelling gear.
After your tour, enjoy free time to explore the island at your own pace. Stroll shaded lanes lined with colourful homes, relax on one of the only natural beaches in the greater Malé area, and experience a laid-back local community atmosphere. For animal lovers, Villingili is known for its hundreds of friendly stray cats roaming the island. It’s the perfect stop for travellers seeking culture, local flavour, and a peaceful contrast to the bustle of the capital.
Snorkelling, water sports, and scuba diving are available in Villingili. If you are interested in any of these activities, please let your guide know in advance to confirm availability and reserve.
After your free time, meet your guide and take the ferry back to Malé. Your guide will help you find transit to your accommodation or your next destination.
This tour is a perfect excursion for those looking to spend a relaxing day in the capital before an evening flight or with limited time from a cruise ship or resort transfer.
