EIA for the proposed Hulhule-Male’ Bridge Project<br />

Representatives from Maihu Surf School, the only surf school in the Maldives, highlighted that<br />

the surfing spot in the proposed project area is the best spots for beginners to learn and practice<br />

surfing. It was also raised that surfing schools use the area more towards the proposed bridge<br />

location than the actual surfers.<br />

It was also highlighted that proposed reclamation area in Hulhule’ is a good surf spot and<br />

occasionally used by the surfers.<br />

Surf spot in Himmafushi was mentioned as the closest alternative location for the surfers. The<br />

concern however was the difficulty of having to travel to another island in order to access the<br />

surf spot. This concern was also raised by the surfing school as it will be challenging to take kids<br />

registered in the school away from Male’.<br />
