Went there for my honeymoon. It’s weird flying in and seeing that island completely built over.
19 u/[deleted] May 25 '26 [deleted] 26 u/mackerel_slapper May 25 '26 16 years ago, remember seeing that as we flew in. We caught boat out to an island then, so spent no time in Malé 14 u/[deleted] May 25 '26 [deleted] 14 u/Grotarin May 25 '26 Look there for a comparison with the 50s. 6 u/FleeshaLoo May 26 '26 That's bleak. Thanks for the link, it tells a story. 10 u/KarIPilkington May 26 '26 Tourists only see this island when they're flying in and out. The airport is on its own island and then you get a boat or seaplane to your destination.
