How to reach Joy Island Maldives by The Cocoon Collection
Joy Island is 39 km from Velana International Airport in Male. The transfer runs by seaplane or domestic flight. Seaplanes operate on daylight schedules, so late arrivals may require an overnight in Male before flying to the island. The resort lists an airport shuttle as part of its services.
An airport taxi is inexpensive — typically MVR 60–100 (about $4–8) on the fixed fares, taking 10–20 minutes; the public airport shuttle bus costs even less. No ferry or speedboat is needed — the islands are connected to the airport by road.
