Raalhugandu, Male': The now lost, and heavily mourned, surfing location closest to the Capital City, that offered a variety of waves and the best possible conditions. PHOTO: MOOSA MOHAMED

The crazy-beautiful waves of Raalhugandu, Male' are constantly missed by the local surfers and ocean lovers alike. Although many attempts were made to save the most consistent and largest variety of waves near the Capital City, plans to construct the bridge were already underway. Today, Varunulaa Raalhugandu looks very different and the surf, as well. PHOTO: MOOSA MOHAMED
