The southernmost atoll in Maldives, Addu Atoll is a beautiful yet secluded place that is famous amongst tourists. Gan Island, in turn, is the southernmost island that forms a part of the Addu Atoll, making it the southernmost island of Maldives as well. The glorious Gan island is popular for water sports, snorkelling and diving and is home to some of the best luxury resorts in Maldives. The island is one of the few places in Maldives that brings forth a perfect fusion of luxury and the island culture it is known for.
Although Gan Island is as far 541 kilometres from the capital of Male, the Gan International Airport has made it easily accessible. This is one of the charms of the island as reaching it is no hassle and yet it is miles away from other islands in the Maldives, giving it is a private, isolated feel.
