Hey, william. Other than the last guy you spoke, they are not from Maldives. They are Bangladeshi people. Most of the people from Thoddoo knows how to speak basic English. And mostly people from this island works morning and evening on the farm. Maybe that's why you find all the roads empty. It's quite peaceful and free here. Thank you for featuring Thoddoo island.

In some weird way, this has to be my favourite video of a traveller. There's something so moving about someone being alone in a big beautiful island. And it's not like a survival show, you have everything, but it's like you just accidentally walked into a different planet altogether and are now wondering where all the people went.

The reason why , you will find less people in day time and less recreational activities is because it's 16th day out of 30 of Ramadan, which is the fasting ( dry fasting from early morning prayer around 4:45 am to evening prayer at 6:14 pm ) month of all Muslims around the planet . You should try fasting one day , 1st or 2nd day you may have headache but slowly your body will adapt and will make you more energised. You are in Alifu Alifu atoll which is the northern part of the atoll , the southern part is called Alifu Dhaalu Atoll. Mostly all islands have very beautiful reefs in these 2 atolls . Where less people and less commercial activity means more preserved reefs . Most are untouched underwater gardens . And you are lucky you are in the biggest 🍉 watermelon plots , which have good tasting watermelon

Hey William, there's a website that explains all about ferry transfers in the Maldives. You've taken speed boats which go back and from Male. There are also local Dhoni ferries that visit different islands in an atoll group. They are less frequent, slower, but cheaper. You can catch one of these to visit Uklhas and Mathiveri both have cheap guesthouses and house reefs.
