KIHA Beach

KIHA Beach is on Dharavandhoo in Baa Atoll, a local island about 116 km from Velana International Airport (MLE). Most guests come by shared speedboat from Malé or the airport — about 2½ hours — which the property can usually book for you. Dharavandhoo also has its own domestic airport (Dharavandhoo Airport), a short flight from Malé. Some islands are also on the public ferry network, which is far cheaper but much slower and runs on set days. The guest house provides a free airport shuttle as part of arrival arrangements.
