Southern Ari Atoll or Alifu Dhaalu Atoll is an administrative division of the Maldives.

The separation of Ari Atoll (formerly Alifu Atoll) into a Northern and a Southern section has formed the two most recent administrative divisions of the Maldives, namely Alifu Alifu Atoll and Alifu Dhaalu Atoll.

There used to be a beautiful ancient mosque in Fenfushi island having wooden decorated ceilings and lacquerwork panels.
