Ranveli - literally meaning Golden Sand in the local language, the island with its beautiful sandy beaches, the tall palm trees and mirror-like clear water, is a self-contained paradise. One of its most distinguishing features, and also its most beautiful, is the long white beach that stretches away from the island. Like a deliberately constructed road to the edge of the sea, this naturally created stretch of white sand lets you understand the true meaning of “a walk on the beach”.
Located in South Ari Atoll, one of the 20 administrative atolls of the Maldives, Ranveli lies 35km from the airport island. From the airport you travel to Ranveli either by sea plane or helicopter. It takes just half an hour to get to the landing pad from which you would travel to Ranveli on the traditional dhoni.
The journey from the airport to Ranveli is an adventure itself. The aerial view of the Maldives that you catch from the sea plane or the helicopter is breathtaking. Small green islands with their white beaches and surrounding aquamarine lagoons lie on the cobalt blue ocean. Seen from above it makes a picture that you would not want to miss. As you take the dhoni to Ranveli from the helipad, the feeling of the sea breeze on your face, and the sea below you are just as enjoyable.
