Bodu Thila
★★★★☆
(307)
20 minutes east from Kandolhu, close to Ellaidhoo in the channel you will find this pinnacle with a top reef at around 8 meters, falling down to 30+ meters. Its location in the channel can make the dive bit challenging due to strong currents - just always remember to make a quick descent.
The south side has plenty of overhangs which hide gorgonian fans and black coral bushes but also nurse sharks or sting rays hide there to have a nap.
