Felidhu Atoll
Felidhu Atoll is a natural atoll of the Maldives.
It is the least populated administrative atoll.
This atoll is located from the capital Malé, 90 minutes by speedboat and 5 hours by slow boat.
The Vaavu Atoll administrative division includes two geographical atolls; Felidhu Atoll and the small egg-shaped Vattaru Reef, which has only one little islet and is in diameter.
The easternmost geographical point of the Maldives is located at Foiytheyo Muli, close to Foiytheyobodufushi Island. This is thought to be the least visited island in the whole of Maldives being at the far eastern extremity and from the nearest inhabited island of Keyodhoo.
No remains from the Buddhist period have been found on this atoll. However the island of Thinadhoo was famous for its old coral stone mosque noted for its fine masonry and woodcarvings comparable to those glorified by Thor Heyerdahl in Kudahuvadhoo. It was destroyed in the 1980s for building material and all that remains are four solid coral pillars that rest in the island school yard.
