About Shallow Lagoon Rasdhoo

Shallow Lagoon Rasdhoo is a well-regarded 3-star guesthouse on the local island of Rasdhoo in the North Ari region, a 575m x 400m inhabited island reached by a 90-minute speedboat, a 15-minute seaplane, or a 35-minute domestic-flight-plus-speedboat combination from Male. The property has 8 rooms and a single in-house restaurant offering Bed & Breakfast, Half Board and Full Board plans, with menus drawing on Maldivian and international dishes. The location gives direct access to Rasdhoo Madivaru, widely known as Hammerhead Point, where early-morning dives regularly encounter schooling scalloped hammerhead sharks, along with manta rays, eagle rays, grey reef sharks and turtles. Excursions include dive trips, snorkel safaris, sandbank picnics and island-hopping to the nearby Madivaru and Kuramathi channels. With a 4.5/5 rating across 163 reviews, the guesthouse is distinctive for pairing budget-friendly local-island accommodation with immediate access to one of the most sought-after dive sites in the country.
