thumb | right | alt=Map of Laamu Atoll and Haddhunmathi Atoll. | Map of Laamu Atoll and Haddhunmathi Atoll. Fonadhoo (Dhivehi: ފޮނަދޫ) is the capital island of the Laamu Atoll of the Maldives.
The island has three villages: Barasil (northernmost), Medhuavah (in the middle) and Kurigam (southernmost). However, after the relocation of people from the neighbouring Gaadhoo, two new communities have emerged, one to the north of Baraasil and the other, south of Kurigam. The population of the island exceeded 3,000 in 2023.
