A Natural Enigma
DATE: 2006-08-27
A unique island left solely alone in the Indian ocean. This classic island is bequeathed with nature's elegant wonders and no other Maldivian island can match its exquisite natural beauty
The azure sky and the stupendous deep blue sea obey the tranquility and serenity of a natures best-kept secret, Fuvahmulah, the third largest island in the Maldives. It is located in the southern side of the equatorial channel, between Addu atoll to its south and Huvadhoo atoll to its north, at 017S latitude, 73 26E longitude. It is a singular island, rising high above the floor of the Indian ocean. The island is of corralling origin on a slowly subsidizing volcanic ridge. Unlike other islands it is not part of an atoll. Thus it is not part of a cluster of islands typically protected by lagoons. Fuvahmulah has got an exceptional abundance of natural resources. Still and all it lacks nothing in natural beauty.
Its inhabitants have exceptional talents in boat construction and navigation, but their endeavors are frequently thwarted by the dangers of high waves, narrow jagged reefs, undertows, perilous currents, rapidly changeable equatorial weather sea conditions; and location give it exceptionally potential for orderly growth and as a southern hub for the nations development.
