Maldives hotels with speedboat transfer: 14 resorts

Speedboat transfers in the Maldives are one of the most common ways to get to the resort. You can take a speedboat to hotels that are located relatively close to the country's main airport, located in the capital, Male.

Transfer by speedboat is carried out to the North and South Male atolls. The journey to the resorts located on these atolls can take from 10 minutes to an hour. If you choose a hotel close to Male, you can significantly save on transfers. Some hotels in South Male are located far away and, in addition to speedboat trips, offer a seaplane: this transfer option depends on the time of arrival in the Maldives. More details about the transfer in the Maldives.
