Maldives Sunrise | Komandoo

The boardwalk and water villas here are on the beautiful resort island of Komandoo in the Lhaviyani Atoll of The Maldives. Sunrise and sunset times do not vary much throughout the year and you don’t have to get up too early to see the dawn. With sunrise at around 7am, I still had a lie-in compared to a normal day back home, before getting up to capture this gorgeous tranquil scene. Even at this relatively late sunrise time, Komandoo is virtually empty of people so it’s a great time to be out with the camera.

Komandoo is the sister island of Kuredu and is much smaller and quieter. making it ideal for couples wanting a relaxing break. Like many islands in The Maldives, both Komandoo and Kuredu are popular honeymoon destinations.
