About Milaidhoo water aerodrome
Milaidhoo Seaplane Base (VR-MLI) serves Milaidhoo in Baa Atoll. It lies about 128 km (69 nm) from Malé, roughly 50 minutes by seaplane. It is also known as Milaidhoo Island Maldives.
Like all water aerodromes in the Maldives, operations are daytime VFR only, and conditions on the water — wind, sea state, and tide — decide whether a departure or arrival is comfortable, marginal, or off. Seavion tracks those conditions live, refreshed every 15 minutes from MMS, METAR, and marine forecast sources.
Seaplane travel here follows the Maldives' two monsoon seasons. The northeast monsoon (iruvai, roughly December to April) generally brings drier, calmer weather, while the southwest monsoon (hulhangu, roughly May to November) tends to be wetter with stronger winds. Conditions still vary day to day, so the live outlook above is a better guide than the calendar.
