# Maldives Photographer on Feridhoo

Feridhoo is a small village island of around 540 people on the western side of North Ari (Alif Alif) Atoll, about 88 km from Malé. It came late to guesthouse tourism and remains low-key, with a designated bikini beach, a house reef that drops into the atoll's western channels, and a scattering of uninhabited islands and sandbanks nearby. Being on the outer rim, it faces the open ocean to the west, which gives its sunsets a clean horizon and its reefs the manta and reef-shark traffic North Ari is known for.

## Beaches & photo spots on *Feridhoo*

- Bikini beach: The designated tourist beach on the lagoon side: quiet sand and shallow water, best in the softer afternoon light.
- Western reef edge: The drop-off toward the atoll's outer channels, where snorkel and dive frames come with pelagic visitors.
- Nearby sandbanks: Bare sandbanks and picnic islets reached by dhoni from the harbour, giving open, uncluttered backdrops.
- Village lanes and harbour: A compact fishing village with sandy streets and a working jetty, with everyday-life frames in morning light.

## Practical notes for *Feridhoo*

- Getting there: Scheduled speedboats from Malé cost around USD 80 and take a couple of hours; the public ferry route through Rasdhoo and Ukulhas is slow and day-specific, so confirm locally.
- Bikini beach rules: Swimwear is limited to the designated beach; modest dress applies in the village.
- Drones: Nationwide MNDF and Civil Aviation Authority permits plus island council permission are required.

## Photoshoot on *Feridhoo*: FAQ

**How do we get to Feridhoo for the shoot?**

We arrange boat or domestic transfer, or pair you with a Coora photographer already in Alifu Alifu Atoll. If you're already staying on Feridhoo, we meet you there; we photograph guests on their own island.

**When is the best light for a photoshoot on Feridhoo?**

Golden hour: roughly the last 60–90 minutes before sunset, and the first hour after sunrise. We schedule every Feridhoo session around it and move between jetty, beach and palm lines as the light changes.

**Can we wear swimwear for our photoshoot on Feridhoo?**

Yes. Feridhoo has a designated bikini beach, so swimwear and beachwear frames are fine there. Elsewhere on the island modest dress applies, which we plan around.

**Can you fly a drone for our photoshoot on Feridhoo?**

Often yes. Drone rules vary by island and resort; we check Feridhoo's current permissions before your session and, where flying isn't possible, plan aerials from a nearby sandbank.

**How quickly do we get the photos from our Feridhoo shoot?**

Your full edited gallery arrives within 48 hours, print-ready files plus social crops, with a preview first so you can choose favourites and request edits.
