Experiences

Raa Atoll’s unique topographical and geographical features make it rich and diverse in marine life. The outer ridge of the atoll is deep while the inner islands are on shallower plateaus, making conditions uniquely favourable for the proliferation of corals and fish. The western ridge of the atoll also lies close to one of the best deep water fishing sites in Maldives and makes the atoll an excellent place to see

both reef and pelagic fish.

JOALI Being can create exceptional itineraries for guests to explore and enjoy wonders of nature. Embark on chartered yacht or dhoni excursions and meet local Maldivian communities through bespoke immersive experiences. The lush island also offers an abundant playground for invigorating workouts and fitness routines. Well-lit tennis courts are ready to host friendly games as well as challenging matches.
