Maldivler’de hiç unutamayacağım anlardan bir tanesini bu ada da yaşadım. Nedir o? Okyanusun ortasında bir adada yani burada bisiklet sürüp sonuna kadar gittim. Su üzerinde yaşattı beni o bembeyaz mercanlara dokuna dokuna. Bu adanın uzunluğu 2.4 km ve resorta geldiğinizde odanızın önüne bisiklet istemeyi unutmazsanız adayı dolaşmanız daha kolay olabilir. Ada dar ve uzun. Gezmesi çok keyifli. Odalar bir tarafta diğer tarafta sadece kıyı var ve okyanustaki dalga seslerinde akşam yemeğinizi yemekte ve okyanusun üzerine kurulmuş restoranda iseniz zaten tadından yiyemezsiniz o yemeği. Ayrıca hemen hemen her resortta olduğu gibi odanızın kapısı burada da okyanusa açılıyor. Bu ayrıntı da oldukça hoş. Ayrıca bu adada bulunuyorsanız spaya uğramadan da ayrılmayın.

This is absolutely a unique island due to its size and shape. Its 2,5km long wild beach on one side, and more ‘civilized’ beach where all beach villas are located on the other side give you the feeling of tranquility and the open water ocean with waves at the same time; depending on which one you prefer at a time.
The villas in this beautiful resort are designed to make you feel at home, relaxed and give you a lot of privacy. Having a huge bathroom in your backyard with a jacuzzi, showers and everything, it is hard to leave your villa. And in case you decide to leave, you have the ocean just in front of you.
Being a large island, it is a good idea to ask for a bike. With your own bike on the island, you can feel the freedom of cycling on an island in the middle of Indian Ocean. It’s a great feeling you should try.
Last but not least, having lunch or dinner in the restaurant is another experience, just by the water and facing the waves of the ocean.
