About The Ritz-Carlton Fari Islands

The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands sits in North Malé Atoll, about 45 minutes by speedboat from Velana International Airport. We come to you by boat from our base. The resort is part of the Fari Islands development, sharing a marina village with neighbouring properties, and is known for its circular, modernist villas designed around natural light and views. Overwater villas trace the lagoon edge while beach villas sit behind young palms and white sand. Architecture-led and minimal, it suits clean, editorial-style couple and family portraits.

Where we shoot

Beaches & photo spots on The Ritz-Carlton Fari Islands

Overwater villa deck

Rounded decks and pools set over a pale lagoon give strong geometry and reflections for modern couple portraits.

Marina and walkways

Curved boardwalks and the Fari Marina village give an architectural, lifestyle backdrop unusual for the Maldives.

Beach villa shoreline

Soft sand and a calm lagoon on the island's lee side for relaxed family and walking frames.

Sunset over the lagoon

West-facing decks and beaches catch the final colour; the last thirty minutes are the best.

Resorts set their own photographer and drone policies. We clear access with the resort before your session, and where drones are not permitted on the island we shoot aerials from a nearby sandbank by boat.

Transfer and timing
