How to reach Gangehi Island Resort
Gangehi Island Resort is 86 km from Velana International Airport and accessed by seaplane transfer. Seaplanes typically operate during daylight hours, so late-night arrivals may require an overnight in Malé before flying to the island the following morning. The resort concierge can help coordinate timing.
Seaplane transfers typically run $250–600 per person round trip, booked through the property. A few islands in this band are also served by a domestic flight to a nearby regional airport plus a short boat — ask the property which routing is faster for your dates.
