Noonu Atoll

A vastness that carries the sea

Pampered by the turquoise waters of the northern Maldivian seas, the Noonu Atoll hosts a handful of exclusive, unspoilt islands protected by a sprawling coral reef. Towering palm trees, tropical flowers, and pearly sand frame a vista of deep blue waters where rainbow fish, majestic rays, and serene sea turtles thrive.

Only insiders know…

• The Maldives is made up of 1,192 coral islands in 26 atolls, over 90,000 sq km (35,000 sqm)
• Maldivians take their weekend on Friday and Saturday
• The corallite sand that makes up the Maldivian island beaches is largely created by the parrot fish - one adult parrot fish can produce 1 ton of sand per year
• Geckos in Maldivian culture are considered very lucky, playing a part in daily decisions
