Noonu Atoll Velidhoo Informations

The origin of the first settlers of the Velidhu Island still remains a mystery. The historians date early settlers back to 5 th century BC with the Aryan immigrants coming from neighboring countries India and Srilanka. According to early settlers the Veliduans we found today mix up of people from the near two islands in the atoll. The Magoodhoo and Tholhendhoo Island and today Velidhu is found as the island with highest population count within the atoll. The Veliduans language is Dhivehi .

The island has a lot of historic monuments too and one of them is the presence of a tree ( velidhu bodu nikagas ), a tree which has been there fore more than 5 centuries recorded. The island is said to be one of the greatest fishing area in the Maldives , Specially the Noonu Atoll within the atoll.

Much of the history of Velidhu is yet unknown this is due to the slow civilization process and is unstable. but research and studies are being done and on going to find the mysteries hidden. this is one of the reason why this web site has been launched .

"The Veliduans are a friendly. hospitable and peace loving people, at the same time reserved and in control of their emotions".
