Your photoshoot
on Kihaadhoo
Professional photography on Kihaadhoo, Baa Atoll — honeymoon and couples sessions, proposals, families, and drone aerials, photographed by locals who know the island's best light.
About Kihaadhoo
Kihaadhoo is one of the smallest village islands in Baa Atoll — around 480 people on 0.27 km² — roughly 123 km from Malé and a short boat ride from Dharavandhoo airport. It has just one guesthouse and a designated bikini beach, and sits among some of the atoll's best-known resort and dive reefs, with Hanifaru Bay within day-trip range. The appeal is quiet: a one-street village, a clean beach and a lagoon that empties of visitors by mid-afternoon.
