Less guesswork.
More island.
Your starting point for choosing islands, stays and the journeys in between.
01 / Two islands, different rhythms
Havelock or Neil?
Start with your pace.
Havelock is also called Swaraj Dweep; Neil is Shaheed Dweep. Both can belong in the same trip. The right balance depends on what you want to do and the time you have.
Shaheed Dweep
Neil
A quieter chapter of beaches and natural rock formations. Consider Neil when you want unhurried island time alongside your main experiences.
Read the Neil guide ↗Our planning suggestion: explore a two-island route.
Add both only when ferry connections leave enough time to enjoy each stay. More islands should not mean a trip spent transferring.

An example sequence, not a live sailing schedule. The order can change for your dates.
Before you choose
Share your arrival and departure flights, island wish list and any mobility needs. Leave connection time for getting between the airport, hotel and jetty.
Before you book
Check the actual sailing, passenger details, fare category, baggage terms and cancellation rules. Seat availability and operator conditions can change.
Before you board
Use the jetty and reporting time printed on your ticket. Keep identification and tickets accessible, and reconfirm your transfer arrangements.
Check the selected operator's current rules: Makruzz passenger terms. Reporting times and allowances are operator-specific.
Your dates. Your pace.
