Villingili (Dhivehi: ވިލިނގިލި) is one of the inhabited islands of Gaafu Alif Atoll. The World Health Organization has a local unit there. Traditionally this island is also known as 'Huvadu Atoll Vilingili'. In former times, Vilingili boat owners used to decorate their fishing boats with rich and varied decorative patterns. This practice was discontinued in the 1970s.
