Plan your trip

Upon arriving at Velana International Airport on the island of Malé, you'll be greeted by a representative from Noku Maldives. The friendly staff will escort you to the ferry or seaplane (Trans Maldivian Airways) terminal. Depending on the volatility in the weather, you could be taking either transport or a combination of both to reach the resort.

Maldives is hot and sunny all year round, with average temperatures of 23°C to 31°C. The best time to visit is between November and April; the other months are low-season periods due to monsoons and the high tides.

Wifi connection in Noku Maldives is a bit spotty, so it’s better to purchase a local SIM card from the airport before boarding the seaplane or speed boat.

Maldives is a Muslim country, but the Sharia law is not practiced in most of the islands except for Malé, the capital.
