  Another Maldivian domestic airdelayport. Check-in hall is too hot to be in even at night, "security" is brain-eating, like in many other small airports is tiny yet proud countries (get ready for unpacking luggage to show diving and pro photo stuff, especially if it has batteries). Also don't be surprised by 4-5 hours flight delay (what's the point to have schedule at all?); cafe is to the right from entrance, better occupy a table immediately to make waiting a bit less annoying.
