About the atoll
What Raa is for, and what it isn't.
Raa sits north of Baa Atoll and shares much of its marine geography without the manta crowds. The resort count is low, transfers are mostly seaplane, and the islands tend to be larger and quieter than the central atolls.
The atoll has become a quiet home for design and wellness flagships. House reefs are generally strong, and the protected channels make for excellent snorkelling year-round.
