How to reach Turtle Maldives
Omadhoo sits in South Ari Atoll, approximately 77 km from Velana International Airport in Malé. The transfer is by seaplane. The guest house provides an airport shuttle service. Seaplane flights operate during daylight hours, so early morning flights from Malé and late afternoon returns are standard planning considerations.
Seaplane transfers typically run $250–600 per person round trip, booked through the property. A few islands in this band are also served by a domestic flight to a nearby regional airport plus a short boat — ask the property which routing is faster for your dates.
The journey
Step by step
- Fly to Malé. Arrive at Velana International Airport (MLE), the Maldives' main international gateway, served by direct flights from Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
- Seaplane transfer. Transfer onward by scenic seaplane over the atolls — roughly 77 km. Seaplanes operate in daylight hours only, so a late arrival may mean an overnight in Malé.
- Arrive at Turtle Maldives. Settle in and start your stay.
