Madifushi (Dhivehi: މަޑިފުށި) is one of the abandoned islands of Meemu Atoll.
The island is 121.820NaN0 south of the country's capital, Malé.[2]
M. Madifushi was severely impacted by the 2004 Boxing Day Tsunami, so much so that the people who were previously living in the Island were displaced to Maamigili, an island in Alif Dhaalu Atoll.[3]
