Southern Thiladhummathi Atoll is the southern section of Thiladhummathi Atoll, a natural atoll of the Maldives.
As the administrative division known as Haa Dhaalu it includes the island of Makunudhoo or Maamakunudhoo (Malcolm Atoll in the Admiralty Charts) with its large reef, as well as the southern part of the larger Thiladummathi or Tiladummati Atoll.
There is a domestic airport on the island of Hanimaadhoo about 20km from its capital Kulhudhuffushi.
