How to reach Kandima Maldives
Kandima is in Dhaalu Atoll, 172 km from Velana International Airport. Two transfer routes run from Malé: a seaplane of roughly 40 minutes lands directly at the resort jetty; alternatively, a Manta Air domestic flight of about 35 minutes to Dhaalu Airport connects to a 15-minute speedboat to the island. The resort arranges airport shuttle transfers.
Expect roughly $150–400 per person round trip for the domestic flight + speedboat, arranged by the property. Confirm the fare when booking.
