Huvadhu Atoll, Coral atoll in Upper South Province, Maldives.
Huvadhu Atoll encompasses 255 islands spread across 3,152 square kilometers of Indian Ocean waters, with only 38.5 square kilometers of dry land surface.
The atoll participated in the formation of United Suvadive Republic from 1959 to 1963, marking a significant period of regional autonomy in Maldivian history.
Local artisans in Kondey Island maintain traditional carpentry skills, while residents of Gaddu create high-quality mats using locally sourced hau grass.
The region contains two administrative divisions, Gaafu Alif in the north and Gaafu Dhaalu in the south, with Thinadhoo serving as the primary urban center.
Inhabitants of Huvadhu Atoll communicate in their own dialect of Dhivehi, characterized by distinct retroflex sounds due to geographical isolation.
