Description

Goidhoo (or Goidu or Innafushi), at the NE end of the atoll, is the largest islet (2 km long and 1,5 km wide), and is inhabited. It has been reported (1994) that the shape of the island changes over time.
Goidhu Island lies in a small separate atoll along with Fulhadu and Fehendhu. The reef site to the west of the atoll is called Naamuli Fushi, Maldives which means "the wreck reef", following the discovery of the wreck known as Naamuli Wreck.
