Addu (also Seenu) [1] is the southernmost atoll in the Maldives. Hithadhoo, its capital, was the base of the short-lived United Suvadive Republic secessionist movement in 1959–1963.

[edit] Get in

Gan International Airport (IATA: GAN) can be reached from the capital, Male, in a beautiful unforgettable 60-minute-flight over the southern atolls of the Maldives. The airport has been upgraded to international status and is scheduled to start receiving direct charters from Europe in 2007.

[edit] Get around

The four islands of Gan, Feydu, Maradu and Hithadhoo are connected to each other by causeways.
