Addu Nature Park

ADDU NATURE PARK - HITHADHO

UNESCO Biosphere Reserve

The island of Hithadhoo is home to the second largest natural mangrove forest in the country. It’s a birdwatcher’s dream — here you might spy the Maldivian plover, the white tern, the Indian reef heron or the great frigatebird, among others. 

The Addu Nature Park consists of the Eydhigali Kilhi wetlands and Koattey, meaning fortress, a protected area on Hithadhoo island. You can explore on foot, by bike, by golf cart or from the water canoe in Bedhi Bay to get a closer look at its red mangroves and marine breeding grounds. Renowned for its extraordinary diversity, it's home to variants of terns, herons and egrets. 

Addu Nature Park is sure to provide a fun-filled, memorable experience for visitors of all ages. We hope you get to visit the southernmost atoll of the Maldives, and stay in the equator, discover the wonders, and immerse yourself in the rich history and beautiful isles of Addu.
