About Gaadhoo

Gaadhoo is in the process of being depopulated. Its residents have been relocating to Fonadhoo in the same atoll, with island administration being wound down - this is an active, government-organized resettlement rather than a historical event, so the island's status may continue to change.

There is no active local-island tourism infrastructure here. If you're researching Laamu Atoll for a local-island stay, Fonadhoo (the atoll capital, where Gaadhoo's community is resettling) is the relevant destination instead.
