Get aroundKuredu is one of the larger tourist islands in the Maldives, but you can still walk around its circumference (along the beach) in 40 minutes to 1 hour.

SeeScuba diving is the main attraction of the Island and is nothing short of world class. The snorkelling is also very good, but not for the fainthearted.

DoThere is a spa located on the island offering various treatments.

BuyThere is a shop selling a few basics (towels, sun cream, hats, souvenirs), but it is very expensive, so it would be best to bring everything you need with you.

EatFood in the standard restaurant is varied and good. However, unless you have an all-inclusive package, it is extremely expensive, though lunch is ca. $17 US and dinner ca. $27 US.

DrinkYou are not allowed to bring any form of alcohol into the country, but alcohol is served in all the tourist resorts including Kuredu. There are several bars which can get busy at night.

SleepSeveral types of accommodation are available, and most come with a private bit of beach.
