Getting from Malé airport to the city center

Malé, the capital of the Maldives, is served by Velana International Airport (MLE), located on Hulhulé Island approximately 2 km northeast of Malé city center. Due to the island geography, airport transfers to city center destinations are primarily by water. Options include speedboat transfers, public ferries, and private boat charters. Journey times are short but depend on sea conditions and ferry schedules.

Notes:

  • Prices in MVR; table created in 2025 and subject to change.
  • Malé city is on a separate island from the airport; water transport is required to reach the city center.
  • Taxis are available for travel to Hulhumalé via the Sinamalé Bridge but cannot reach Malé city directly.
  • Sea conditions may affect ferry and speedboat schedules, especially during monsoon season.
  • We recommend checking official transport websites for your travel planning.
