THINADHOO🖤
Thinadhoo is the capital of Gaafu Dhaalu Atoll and the proposed capital for the Upper South Province of the Maldives. It has its own dialect of Dhivehi which is considerably different from northern and mid-Maldivian speech.
The island was formerly known as Havaru Thinadhoo and it was the traditional seat of the Atoll Chief.
Thinadhoo consists of 5 schools and 1 national university. 1 secondary school, 2 primary to middle section school and 2 primary school.
I have studied in Thinadhoo school only and it was a really amazing journey from grade 6 to grade 8 in T.S.(Thinadhoo School).
The population of Thinadhoo is maximum 10- 12,000 (I guess). The island is 408 km far from the capital city Male'.
Enamaa boat incident
The boat Enamaa was carrying far more than its capacity of up to 126 when a wave overturned it. Twenty one people died with two missing when Enamaa capsized into the sea of Gaafu Dhaalu atoll on 17 March 2004.
The Enamaa boat was traveling at nine and a half nautical miles per hour to Thinadhoo Island after watching the home team play a football match in Vilingili Island in Gaafu Alifu atoll.
Stay tuned for more updates..........
