About Ozen Reserve Bolifushi water aerodrome

Ozen Reserve Bolifushi Seaplane Base (VR-JVM) serves Ozen Reserve Bolifushi on Bolifushi in Kaafu Atoll, with seaplane services operated by Trans Maldivian Airways. It lies about 18 km (10 nm) from Malé — a short hop by seaplane.

Like all water aerodromes in the Maldives, operations are daytime VFR only, and conditions on the water — wind, sea state, and tide — decide whether a departure or arrival is comfortable, marginal, or off. Seavion tracks those conditions live, refreshed every 15 minutes from MMS, METAR, and marine forecast sources.

Seaplane travel here follows the Maldives' two monsoon seasons. The northeast monsoon (iruvai, roughly December to April) generally brings drier, calmer weather, while the southwest monsoon (hulhangu, roughly May to November) tends to be wetter with stronger winds. Conditions still vary day to day, so the live outlook above is a better guide than the calendar.
