Vaadhoo Island
Raa Atoll, Maldives
Vaadhoo Island is a small inhabited island at the southern tip of Raa Atoll in the Maldives, about 194 kilometers north of Malé, featuring a large coral reef, deep lagoon, and beaches that shift seasonally.
It is world-famous for the "Sea of Stars" bioluminescent phenomenon on its eastern beach, where glowing plankton light up the waves like stars at night, best seen from June to October on new-moon evenings, with tours for night snorkeling and dinners.
The local economy blends fishing for grouper and tuna, women's palm weaving, and sustainable tourism via guesthouses, offering snorkeling, diving, kayaking, and island hopping in a community-focused setting.
